2019 Ford Transit 350 Leader Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · MM69 YSB

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the most recent test indicates a slight decline in attention to minor exterior maintenance items. On 30 October 2025 at 99,056 miles, the Transit initially failed due to an inoperative registration plate lamp, a defective offside wiper blade, and a deteriorated front number plate. These issues were rectified immediately to secure a pass on the same day. The overall mechanical trend remains stable as no structural or major mechanical failures have been recorded across the last four tests. The mileage profile shows a significant acceleration in usage over the last period. Between November 2023 at 50,393 miles and October 2025 at 99,056 miles, the vehicle covered nearly 50,000 miles in two years. This represents a sharp increase from the previous period, where it covered only 16,762 miles between late 2022 and late 2023. This high annual mileage puts considerable strain on the EcoBlue engine, suspension components, and braking system compared to a lower-use vehicle of this age. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and drivetrain system, as the recent surge in mileage often accelerates wear on bushings, coil springs, and shock absorbers. While the MOT history is clean of advisories regarding structural corrosion, the high-intensity use suggests that brake discs and pads may be nearing the end of their lifespan. Pay close attention to signs of fluid leaks around the engine, given that high-mileage commercial vans frequently experience seal wear under heavy loads.
