2020 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · MA70 FFV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. It passed its most recent MOT on 19 June 2025 at 111,913 miles with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed a test on 12 June 2025, the record shows no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a clerical error or a minor issue resolved immediately to achieve the pass a week later. The mileage is high for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging over 18,000 miles per year. The accumulation has accelerated recently, with a jump of 19,436 miles between the July 2023 test at 70,814 miles and the July 2024 test at 92,477 miles. A further 19,436 miles were added by June 2025. This consistent, high-intensity usage typically places significant stress on the drivetrain and chassis. The MOT history is unusually clean for a high-mileage commercial vehicle, showing no advisories for brake wear, suspension bushes, or corrosion over three years. Such a sterile record is atypical for a Transit Connect with 111,913 miles. A buyer should personally verify the condition of the brake discs and pads, as well as the state of the coil springs and shock absorbers, to ensure they have been replaced as consumables rather than simply ignored. Inspect the underside for structural rust and check the exhaust system for leaks. Given the high annual mileage, a physical check of the clutch bite point and gearbox synchronization is recommended. The absence of any recorded defects suggests either meticulous preventative maintenance or a tester who has overlooked common wear items.
