2014 Ford Transit Connect 1.6L Diesel · MM14 FPA

The 2014 Ford Transit Connect passed its most recent MOT on 2025-10-09 at 115,357 miles, with no defects recorded. However, the vehicle failed two consecutive tests on 2025-10-08 (same mileage) and 2024-10-03 (105,082 miles), followed by another failure on 2024-07-18 (103,277 miles), all without recorded defects. This pattern suggests potential issues with testing compliance or procedural errors, as no specific mechanical faults were documented. The latest pass indicates a possible resolution, but the repeated failures raise concerns about inconsistent maintenance or administrative oversights. The vehicle’s mileage of 115,357 miles over 12 years aligns with an average of 9,613 miles annually, reflecting typical usage for its age. A gap between the 2024-10-03 test (105,082 miles) and the 2025-10-09 test (115,357 miles) shows a 10,275-mile increase over 12 months, consistent with regular operation. No significant anomalies in mileage accumulation are evident, though the lack of detailed defect records limits insight into wear patterns. The absence of advisories or critical failures in the latest test suggests the vehicle is currently roadworthy, but prior inconsistencies warrant scrutiny. A buyer should inspect the suspension, brakes, and exhaust system, as repeated MOT failures—despite no defects noted—may indicate unresolved issues. Pay close attention to brake components, including calipers and discs, and check for corrosion in the underbody or chassis. The lack of recorded structural damage is reassuring, but the vehicle’s history of failed tests implies potential neglect in addressing minor faults. A physical inspection is essential to confirm the absence of hidden wear or unresolved service requirements.
