2014 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · PX14 MLY

The vehicle currently presents in a roadworthy state, showing an improving trend in maintenance discipline. The most recent inspection conducted on 10 February 2026 at 146,769 miles passed with no defects or advisories. This represents a significant shift from previous years where the vehicle failed initial tests. The transition from failure to a clean pass certificate suggests that the current owner has addressed outstanding mechanical issues and is proactively maintaining the vehicle to the required standards. The mileage profile indicates consistent and heavy commercial use, averaging approximately 12,200 miles per year over its twelve-year life. Between the 30 January 2024 test at 135,097 miles and the 20 February 2025 test at 140,998 miles, the vehicle covered 5,901 miles in just thirteen months. The subsequent interval saw another 5,771 miles covered by February 2026, maintaining a steady rate of accumulation. This high mileage places considerable strain on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system typical of a Ford Transit used for daily operations. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the undercarriage and structural integrity, as the high mileage often accelerates corrosion on the chassis and mounting points. While the recent MOT is clean, the previous failures indicate a history of component wear that required rectification. Verify the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, and check the thickness of the brake discs for any uneven wear. Given the vehicle's age, checking for fluid leaks around the engine block and turbocharger is also essential to ensure the high mileage has not led to imminent mechanical failure.
