2014 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · MD63 ABF

The MOT record for this 2014 Ford Transit is exceptionally clean. Five consecutive annual tests, from February 2022 through the most recent pass on 18 March 2026, all returned no defects and no advisories. The latest test at 40,258 miles confirms the van continues to meet the statutory roadworthiness requirements without any flagged concerns. The maintenance trend is stable rather than improving or worsening; there is no history of suspension, brake, or structural corrosion warnings to suggest any developing mechanical issue. The mileage pattern supports the clean history. The van has covered 40,258 miles over roughly twelve years, an average of approximately 3,355 miles per year, which is low for a Transit typically used for commercial hauling. The recorded increments are steady: 29,030 miles in February 2022, 34,838 in February 2023, 37,488 in February 2024, 39,197 in March 2025, and 40,258 in March 2026. Annual use ranges from about 1,061 to 5,808 miles between tests, with no sudden mileage spikes that would indicate heavy or abusive use. With zero advisories across every test, the DVSA record flags no specific components for extra scrutiny. However, a twelve-year-old van with low annual mileage will still suffer age-related deterioration that a pass certificate does not cover. Inspect the underside for surface corrosion on the chassis rails and suspension mounting points, and check the condition of rubber bushes, anti-roll bar links, and coil springs for cracking or perished material. Brake discs and calipers can corrode or bind when a vehicle sits idle for extended periods, and tyre age is a greater concern than tread depth at this rate of use. A cold-start test and a road test over uneven surfaces are worthwhile checks before purchase. The paperwork points to a well-kept, low-risk vehicle, but none of that eliminates the need for a physical inspection.
