2007 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · VT07 AFU

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, maintaining a clean record over the last two years. The most recent test on 05 January 2026 at 193,354 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite an initial failure on the same day. This pattern suggests that minor issues are rectified immediately prior to re-testing. The lack of recurring advisories across the last three passes indicates that the mechanical and structural components are currently meeting the minimum legal standards. At 193,354 miles over 19 years, the Transit averages approximately 10,177 miles per year, which aligns closely with typical usage for a commercial vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent operation, with roughly 11,912 miles covered between January 2024 and January 2025, and another 6,872 miles recorded between January 2025 and January 2026. This steady mileage accumulation suggests the vehicle has not sat for long periods, which often helps prevent seal degradation and internal corrosion in the braking lines. While the MOT history is clean, the high mileage necessitates a thorough physical inspection of high-wear components. A buyer should focus on the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common points of failure on Transits of this mileage bracket. Given the vehicle's age, a close examination of structural integrity around the sills and mounting points is vital, as the MOT does not always catch surface rust until it becomes a structural violation. Checking for binding calipers or uneven wear on the brake discs will also ensure the recent clean passes reflect the actual condition of the braking system.
