2016 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · SP65 AYL

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, evidenced by a clean pass on 05 September 2025 at 12,254 miles. While the record shows a failure on that same date, the immediate pass with no recorded defects suggests a minor administrative or easily rectified issue that was resolved instantly. Since 2022, the vehicle has consistently passed inspections without any advisories, indicating a lack of significant mechanical degradation or structural corrosion. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old Ford Transit, averaging approximately 1,225 miles per year. Between September 2022 and September 2025, the vehicle covered 5,321 miles, maintaining a consistent pattern of roughly 1,700 miles annually. This low usage suggests the van was likely used for short-distance tasks or remained stationary rather than performing heavy commercial work. However, such low mileage on a commercial vehicle often implies long periods of sitting, which can lead to the gradual degradation of rubber-based components that do not manifest in high mileage figures. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by age and inactivity rather than mileage. Check the tyres for sidewall cracking and flat spots resulting from long storage, and inspect the brake discs for surface pitting or seized calipers which are common when vehicles are not driven regularly. Additionally examine the suspension bushes and rubber boots for per, as these materials perish over a decade regardless of the distance driven.
