2013 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · SH63 CKY

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs as components age and wear. While the most recent test in August 2025 at 141,997 miles passed, it introduced advisories for perished tyres and a worn brake disc. This marks a departure from the clean records seen between 2021 and 2023, indicating that the vehicle is now entering a phase where mechanical components require more frequent attention. At 141,997 miles over thirteen years, the Ford Transit has averaged approximately 11,000 miles per year, which is consistent with typical commercial usage for this model. There is a notable spike of over 10,000 miles between April 2023 and July 2024, followed by another 12,000 miles leading into the 2025 test. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has been used regularly rather than sitting for long periods, though the high mileage explains the increasing wear observed on the suspension and braking system. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and braking architecture. The 2024 test flagged play in the offside front ball joint and corrosion on the brake pipe, both of which should be checked to ensure they were properly addressed and have not deteriorated. The 2025 advisory regarding the pitted offside front brake disc and perished tyres suggests that consumable items are reaching the end of their service life. Verify that these items have been replaced since the last test to avoid immediate expenditure costs.
