2020 Ford Transit 350 Leader Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · MW70 KXV

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with a generally stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 16 January 2026 at 17,523 miles resulted in a pass with no defects following a failure just two days prior at 17,505 miles. While the record shows no specific defect codes for either failure, the proximity of the two tests suggests a minor component issue was identified and rectified immediately before the re-test. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a six-year-old Ford Transit, averaging approximately 2,920 miles per year. Data shows significant intervals between tests, such as the 2,585-mile gap between October 2023 and October 2024, and a further stretch into early 2026. This low usage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the long periods of standing can lead to secondary issues such as seized brake calipers, perished tyres, or degradation of rubber suspension bushes. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection to verify the causes of the failures in October 2023 and January 2026, as the digital record does not specify the mechanical faults. Given the low annual mileage, it is vital to check for surface corrosion on brake discs and ensure the braking system has not seized due to disuse. Inspect the tyres for age cracking and check the integrity of the underbody to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from environmental damage during its periods of inactivity.
