2007 Ford Transit Connect 1.8L Diesel · MT57 FTD

The vehicle currently holds a robust roadworthiness rating, as the most recent MOT test on 2026-02-04 was passed at 181,463 miles, confirming that the current inspection is up to date and the vehicle is not currently failing. The maintenance history reveals a stable trend of passing the MOT, with the 2024-03-05 test at 181,041 miles showing no deterioration in performance or drivetrain components. However, the 2023-03-01 test on 179,252 miles was a failure, indicating that while recent maintenance has been adequate, the 2023-03-03 test at 179,273 miles was passed, suggesting a period of improved upkeep since the 2023-03-01 incident. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for structural integrity and corrosion, particularly the underbody and integral body structures, which were both found corroded in the 2023-03-01 test. The 2026-02-04 test flagged severe deterioration in the constant velocity boots on the front outer drive shaft and the rear service brake, which may require replacement. The 2026-01-29 test similarly highlighted severe corrosion of the outer sill and inner sill on the front and rear vehicles, along with the underbody, suggesting that the vehicle requires professional assessment for any hidden structural damage or corrosion that might not have been visible during the initial MOT.
