Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers prioritising low
Prioritise a check of the braking system; the March 2026 MOT noted thin front brake pads, and the 2023 test flagged worn or pitted discs. Given the very low annual mileage, check the service history to ensure the oil and filters have been changed at regular intervals regardless of distance travelled to prevent engine sludge.
The 2.2L diesel engine is a workhorse, but costs will vary based on the vehicle's specific weight class and insurance group. Expect typical commercial maintenance costs, with a particular focus on brake wear and tyre replacement, which are common for this model.
Inspect the front brake pads and discs immediately, as these have been recurring points of concern in the 2023 and 2026 MOT records. Check all registration plate lamps, as these have caused failures and advisories in both 2023 and 2024. Additionally, check the front suspension for any play, referencing the 2023 failure of the offside front lower suspension arm ball joint.
This white 2016 Ford Transit has recorded 35,325 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average. The MOT history shows failures in 2023 and 2024, including suspension and lighting issues, but the vehicle's low mileage makes it a distinct proposition compared to most Transits of this age.
The Ford Transit has an average MOT pass rate of 74.3% across 736,029 analysed vehicles, with common failure points being headlamps, corrosion, and tyres.
