2007 Ford Transit Connect 1.8L Diesel · PL07 JXJ

The 2007 Ford Transit Connect presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 July 2025 at 149,698 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior passes show no advisories or faults. The history suggests consistent mechanical condition across the last three years with no worsening indicators. Recorded mileage sits at 149,698 against roughly 19 years of age, equating to about 7,879 miles per year which is typical use for a light commercial vehicle. The gap between the 17 October 2022 test at 146,036 miles and the 6 July 2023 test at 147,731 miles shows only 1,695 miles covered in eight months, then a mere 138 miles from July 2023 to June 2024 and just 138 miles again to July 2025. Such low annual accumulation implies long standing periods between tests rather than daily fleet duty. The failed test on 3 July 2023 at 147,731 miles is anomalous as the record lists no defects and the vehicle passed three days later on 6 July 2023 at identical mileage. This points to an administrative or presentation error at the testing station rather than a genuine mechanical fault. No advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions appear across the five entries. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and the likelihood of moisture ingress during its low-use standing periods. Verify the brake calipers are free and the tyres retain legal tread, as the sparse record offers no insight into consumable wear between tests. The clean MOT trail indicates prior owners addressed statutory requirements but provides no evidence of proactive component renewal.
