2011 Ford Transit Connect 1.8L Diesel · OY61 BYT

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 3 February 2026 at 115,069 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. The failure on 2 February 2026, occurring just seven miles prior to the pass, suggests a minor or easily rectified defect, such as a bulb or wiper blade, which was corrected immediately before the re-test rather than a significant mechanical failure. At 115,069 miles, this 2011 Transit Connect has averaged approximately 7,700 miles per year. This aligns with typical usage patterns for a light commercial of this age, indicating it has not been subjected to excessive mileage. The mileage accumulation is consistent across intervals, with roughly 3,000 miles driven between the 2024 and 2025 tests and another 3,400 miles between early 2025 and early 2026. This regularity suggests the vehicle is used consistently rather than suffering long periods ofo. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity and suspension components, as these are common points of wear for Transits of this era. While the recent tests show no recorded advisories, the age of the vehicle necessitates a close check for corrosion on the sills, floor pans, and exhaust mounting. Given the mileage, verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs to ensure no perished rubber or hairline fracturing has not yet been flagged during a standard MOT inspection.
