2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · PJ66 HRP

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test on 11 September 2024 at 78,242 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure on the same day at just three miles prior. This initial failure with no listed defects suggests an administrative error or a minor sensor issue that was rectified immediately rather than a systemic mechanical fault. Since that point, the vehicle has maintained a clean record across multiple annual testing cycles. The mileage pattern is consistent with a light-use commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 7,800 miles per year. Between October 2020 and September 2024, the vehicle covered 22,701 miles, indicating a steady usage rate. The gap of 4,430 miles between the 2021 and 2022 tests shows a period of lower activity, but the overall trend remains predictable. This low annual mileage for a decade-old Ford Transit suggests the drivetrain and suspension components have likely experienced less stress compared to high-mileage fleet vans. Because the MOT record shows no recurring advisories or structural corrosion, a physical inspection should focus on components prone to age-related degradation rather than mileage-based wear. Check the rubber bushes and suspension mounts for cracking, which can occur when a vehicle sits stationary for long periods. Examine the brake discs for signs of pitting or scoring, as low usage can sometimes lead to surface oxidation. Additionally, inspect the chassis for surface rust around the sills and mounting points to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite the clean test history.
