2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · WG67 ADZ

The 2017 Ford Transit presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 22 October 2025 at 153,765 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of annual passes since 2021. The maintenance trend shows no worsening or recurring advisory issues across the available history, indicating the vehicle has cleared every examination without flagged wear to brakes, suspension, or structure. Mileage stands at 153,765 against a nine-year lifespan, averaging roughly 17,085 miles per year, which is high for a light commercial of this age and points to consistent hard use rather than long idle periods. The records show steady annual accumulation: 80,562 miles in October 2021, 103,851 by October 2022, 126,926 by October 2023, 146,913 by October 2024, and 153,765 by October 2025. The jump between 2021 and 2022 alone covered over 23,000 miles. No gaps exist in the testing cadence, and the clean sheets at each interval suggest the previous operator kept basic statutory compliance tight. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of consumable and structural items the MOT does not deeply probe. At this mileage, suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness warrant physical measurement despite no tester advisories. Drivetrain components such as the clutch and turbo on the high-mileage diesel unit carry inherent wear risk that a pass certificate will not reveal. Structural corrosion beneath the body and around chassis mounts remains a latent concern on Transits of this era. The absence of recorded defects implies no visible rot at test, but salt exposure and load cycles mean a ramp inspection of sills and subframes is prudent before purchase.
