2015 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · MD64 AEO

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status based on the most recent MOT pass on 5 December 2024. The maintenance trend appears exceptionally stable, with the vehicle passing its last three annual inspections without a single defect or advisory recorded. This suggests a high standard of preventative maintenance that has kept the vehicle compliant despite its heavy usage. The mileage accumulation is significantly high for an eleven year old vehicle, averaging over 25,000 miles per year. The data shows rapid usage between January 2022 and December 2023, during which the odometer climbed from 184,082 to 242,097 miles. Interestingly, the vehicle has remained stationary at 278,349 miles since the December 2024 test, meaning it has not been driven for over seven months relative to the current date of July 2026. A buyer must now focus on the implications of this prolonged period of inactivity. While the MOT history is remarkably clean, the lack of recorded faults over 278,000 miles is unusual for a Transit of this age. You should physically inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion and check for binding calipers resulting from the vehicle sitting idle. Given the high mileage, a manual inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary, as these components typically fatigue well before the MOT tester flags them as failures. Check for oil leaks around the engine and gearbox and verify the condition of the drivetrain. The absence of historical advisories suggests a well-maintained van, but the current dormant state requires a thorough check of the battery and tyre pressures before road use.
