2021 Ford Transit 350 Leader Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · SY21 HXM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, as evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 12 March 2026 at 69,584 miles which passed with no recorded defects. This follows a clean pass in April 2024, suggesting that the mechanical and structural integrity remains well maintained. The lack of recurring failures across the last three tests indicates that the vehicle is not currently suffering from systemic mechanical degradation or structural neglect. The mileage pattern reflects consistent high usage for a five-year-old van, averaging approximately 14,000 miles annually. Between the April 2024 test at 41,830 miles and the March 2025 test at 57,265 miles, the vehicle covered 15,435 miles in just eleven months. This steady rate of accumulation is typical for a commercial vehicle used regularly but places higher demands on components such as brake systems, suspension bushings, and tyres. The intervals between tests suggest a regular operational cycle rather than long periods of standing. While the history is largely clean, the buyer should note the minor failure in March 2025 due to high nearside and offside front headlamp aim. This was a simple adjustment issue rather than a mechanical failure, but it highlights the importance of thorough lighting checks. Given the high mileage, an in-person inspection should focus on the condition of the suspension arms and shocks, as well as checking the brake discs for signs of thinning or uneven wear. Examining the chassis for early corrosion is also advisable to ensure the high mileage usage has not led to accelerated wear on the underbody.
