2013 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · YA62 BCO

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 20 March 2025 at 156,879 miles. The record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any recorded defects or advisories over the last three years. This absence of noted faults suggests a vehicle that has been kept in a condition meeting minimum legal standards. The mileage is high for a 2013 model, averaging roughly 12,068 miles per year. Between the February 2023 test at 143,485 miles and the March 2024 test at 153,418 miles, the vehicle covered nearly 10,000 miles in just over a year. The accumulation slowed significantly in the final year, with only 3,461 miles added between April 2024 and March 2025. This shift in usage patterns is notable but does not indicate any immediate mechanical alarm. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, the high mileage and age of this Transit necessitate a physical inspection of high-wear components. The lack of reported advisories is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage, meaning a buyer should independently verify the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs. Particular attention must be paid to the chassis and sills for signs of corrosion, as structural rust often develops regardless of a clean test sheet. Check for any signs of oil leaks or drivetrain wear that may not have triggered an MOT failure but would impact long-term reliability. Given the high mileage, the condition of the clutch and the service history of the timing components are the primary areas of concern. The record suggests a well-maintained vehicle, but the physical evidence of wear on consumables will provide the true measure of its remaining lifespan.
