Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to the high mil
Given the high mileage of over 267,000 miles, your primary focus should be on the mechanical integrity of the 2.4L diesel engine and the drivetrain. Ask for evidence of recent heavy-duty maintenance, as MOT records alone do not confirm if the vehicle has received regular servicing.
Negotiate based on the fact that this vehicle has covered significantly more ground than the average Transit in this dataset. Check the underside for corrosion, which is common in older commercial vehicles, and ensure the long wheelbase (L) chassis shows no signs of structural fatigue or heavy loading damage.
As a 2.4L diesel, fuel costs will be a significant factor, heavily dependent on load weight and driving style. Being a 2008 model, tax bands and insurance groups will vary, but you should expect higher insurance premiums typical for a commercial van.
Maintenance costs for a vehicle of this age and mileage are likely to be frequent. Budget for replacement parts such as suspension components, brakes, and tyres, which are subject to heavy wear in Transit models. Estimated annual running costs are expected to be higher than a passenger car due to these commercial-use requirements.
Focus your inspection on the areas that typically lead to MOT failures in high-mileage Transits. While the recent 2025 failure did not specify the defect in the summary, you should check all lighting, braking efficiency, and tyre tread depths.
Specifically, inspect the suspension bushings, shock absorbers, and steering linkages, as these components often wear out on vehicles exceeding 250,000 miles. Additionally, check the diesel system for leaks and the turbocharger for any signs of excessive smoke or unusual noise during a test drive.
This 2008 Ford Transit 100 T350L RWD is a high-mileage diesel workhorse with 267,472 miles recorded as of April 2025. The MOT history shows a pattern of intermittent failures, including a recent failure in March 2025 and another in August 2022. Compared to the aggregate model data of 8,471 average annual miles, this specific vehicle has been driven extensively.
Aggregate data for this model shows a relatively low average MOT pass rate of 64.7%, suggesting common maintenance requirements across the fleet.
