2010 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · NX10 AWY

The 2010 Ford Transit’s most recent MOT on 2025-09-30 at 94,303 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, the vehicle failed three consecutive MOTs in 2024-08-20, 2024-07-11, and 2024-08-11, all at mileages between 92,501 and 92,513, with no defects noted. These failures suggest intermittent issues that were resolved before the final test, but the lack of defect details limits insight into specific mechanical concerns. The absence of recurring structural or safety-critical faults in the latest report is reassuring, though the pattern of repeated failures raises questions about underlying maintenance practices. The vehicle’s mileage of 94,303 miles at 16 years old equates to approximately 5,894 miles annually, significantly lower than average for its age. This suggests either infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate corrosion and component degradation. Notably, the MOTs between 2024-07-11 and 2025-09-30 span 14 months with minimal mileage growth (just 800 miles), raising concerns about potential neglect or storage conditions. While the clean 2025 pass is positive, the sparse data from 2024 to 2025 lacks detail on how the vehicle was maintained during this extended period. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, given the low mileage’s potential to mask wear. The absence of brake-related defects in the latest test is encouraging, but the 2024 failures imply prior issues with brake components or alignment that may require scrutiny. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as prolonged inactivity increases rust risk. The vehicle’s MOT history does not flag exhaust emissions or corrosion, but the irregular testing frequency and low mileage warrant a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm mechanical reliability.
