2019 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · X33 RRC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in February 2026 at 82,891 miles. The maintenance trend shows a period of reactive servicing following a significant failure in early 2025. While the latest test only flagged a minor cosmetic defect to the offside mirror, the previous history indicates a lapse in attention regarding essential safety consumables. The transition from a multi-point failure to a clean pass suggests the current owner addressed the critical safety issues identified by the tester. The mileage profile of 82,891 miles over seven years represents an annual average of approximately 11,800 miles, which is consistent with typical light commercial usage for this age. There is a notable gap in the data between November 2022 and January 2024, where the vehicle covered roughly 17,000 miles in just fourteen months. However, the usage accelerated between February 2025 and February 2026, with over 12,000 miles recorded in that single year. This increase in activity explains the accelerated wear observed on the tyres and suspension components. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the tyres and alignment, as the 2025 failure highlighted heavy inner edge wear and perished rubber across the axles. Such patterns often point to incorrect geometry or worn suspension bushes that were not fully addressed. Additionally, the 2024 advisory regarding thin rear brake pads suggests that the braking system is serviced only when necessary, requiring a physical check of remaining life and disc condition for corrosion. Given the vehicle's age, inspecting the chassis for structural rust around the mounting points is essential to ensure the high annual mileage has not compromised the integrity of the frame.
