2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · WR67 YBV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive approach to repairs rather than preventative care. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 95,041 miles passed, the record shows a trend of recurring faults that persisted across multiple years. The offside front drive shaft CV boot and the offside rear brake pipe corrosion were flagged in three consecutive testing periods, indicating these components were only addressed once they reached a point of potential failure or de-min status. At 95,041 miles, this nine-year-old Transit has averaged approximately 10,500 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a commercial vehicle of this age. The testing intervals are consistent, with tests occurring roughly annually in November. However, the jump from 78,196 miles in November 2023 to 87,069 miles in November 2024 shows a steady accumulation of mileage, though the failures during that period suggest the vehicle was subjected to significant wear without immediate mechanical maintenance between inspections. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the suspension and braking systems. The recurring failure of the lower ball joint dust cover and the offside front CV boot suggests that rubber components throughout the chassis are aging poorly or being neglected. The offside rear brake pipe corrosion, which was noted covered in grease, is a common tactic to hide degradation and requires thorough inspection of the metal line. Furthermore, the history of parking brake efficiency failures in both 2023 and 2024 indicates the handbrake mechanism or cables may require thorough adjustment to ensure they are not seized or excessively worn.
