2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · RA16 NJV

The 2016 Ford Transit presents a stable roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 3 March 2025 at 80,165 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior test on 2 March 2024 at 75,140 miles also passed clean. The maintenance trend is stable, with no advisories or failures logged across the available history. The recorded mileage of 80,165 at the 2025 test equates to roughly 8,000 miles per year since registration, which is typical for a ten-year-old light commercial vehicle. A gap exists between the 2 March 2024 test and the earlier 15 September 2022 test, where the van recorded 69,075 miles; this shows around 6,065 miles covered in roughly seventeen months, a low-use period. The supplied record is sparse with only three entries and no faults, so no wear trends can be inferred from test data alone. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and commercial duty cycle. The MOT history flags no corrosion or structural concerns, but standing periods implied by the low 2022 to 2024 mileage can accelerate rubber perishing and brake caliper binding. Check the exhaust emissions system and tyre condition in person, as these consumables fall outside MOT pass criteria until worn. The clean record suggests previous owners kept basic statutory testing current, though absence of advisories does not confirm component life remaining.
