2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · WA67 GLZ

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT status following a pass on 24 July 2025. The maintenance trend shows a brief period of instability, evidenced by a failure recorded just three weeks prior on 2 July 2025 being rectified to achieve the subsequent pass. While the most recent report indicates no defects, the immediate failure followed by a pass suggests a specific mechanical or safety issue required urgent attention to meet legal standards. At a recorded 153,434 miles, this nine-year-old Ford Transit has covered a significant distance, averaging approximately 17,000 miles per year. This level of use typically accelerates wear on heavy-duty components such as the drivetrain and the suspension system. The provided data is sparse, showing only two entries from 2025, which makes it difficult to track the long-term progression of structural integrity or the consistency of component replacement over several years. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as high-mileage vans are prone to perished rubber components. Given the failure in July 2025, the specific reason for that failure should be identified to ensure the repair was permanent rather than a temporary fix. Inspection of the brake discs for thinning and the calipers for binding is also essential, alongside a check for corrosion on the chassis where road salt often accumulates over time. Buying score: 58 Risk level: Medium.
