2023 Ford Transit Connect 250 Trend Eblu 1.5L Diesel · MX23 VLU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 23 February 2026 at 52,327 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the vehicle met all minimum legal requirements for safety and emissions at the time of testing. The mileage is high for a three year old vehicle, averaging approximately 17,442 miles per year. This level of usage suggests the van has been used intensively, likely for commercial purposes. While the MOT record is clean, the rapid accumulation of miles increases the likelihood of accelerated wear on high-stress components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on consumables and drivetrain health. Given the high mileage, check the depth of the tyre treads and the condition of the brake discs and pads, as these will wear faster than on a low-mileage example. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or perishing. Verify the service history to ensure the engine oil and filters have been changed at intervals consistent with this high mileage. While the MOT shows no structural corrosion or mechanical failures, the heavy usage pattern makes a thorough check of the clutch and gearbox operation essential before purchase.
