2014 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · WX64 AWH

The 2014 Ford Transit has maintained a consistent MOT pass history across five consecutive tests, with the most recent inspection on 14 August 2025 at 113,119 miles confirming no defects. This pattern suggests the vehicle has been subjected to regular, though not necessarily meticulous, maintenance, with no recurring advisories or failures to indicate systemic neglect or deferred repairs. The absence of any advisory notes in the last five tests implies that while the vehicle remains roadworthy, there is no evidence of unresolved issues that could escalate into costly failures. However, the lack of defects does not preclude the need for a thorough independent inspection, particularly for components not routinely assessed in a standard MOT. The recorded mileage of 113,119 miles over 12 years—approximately 9,427 miles annually—falls within the typical range for a commercial van of this age, indicating neither excessive wear nor prolonged inactivity. The consistent annual mileage increments (e.g., 102,383 in 2024, 92,294 in 2023) suggest steady use without abrupt spikes or prolonged periods of disuse, which could otherwise accelerate wear on suspension bushes, coil springs, or drivetrain components. There are no gaps in MOT testing that would raise immediate concern, though the absence of service records means potential hidden issues—such as fluid leaks or gradual corrosion—cannot be confirmed from this data alone. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an inspection of high-wear items not always captured in a test, such as the suspension’s rubber bushes and coil springs for cracking or excessive play, particularly in the rear axle where binding calipers or warped brake discs could develop without immediate MOT failure. The exhaust system should be examined for corrosion or leaks, as older vans are prone to rust-induced perforations, even if not yet severe enough to trigger an advisory. Tyre condition warrants scrutiny, as the absence of tread-related failures in past tests could imply either diligent replacement or a history of underinflation, which accelerates tread degradation. Finally, the underbody and wheel arches should be inspected for structural corrosion, as commercial vehicles often accumulate road salt and debris, accelerating rust in critical load-bearing areas.
