2014 Ford Transit Connect 1.6L Diesel · YC64 ADX

The vehicle presents a consistent and stable maintenance profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent inspection on 6 March 2026 at 126,097 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a series of consecutive passes dating back to March 2022, suggesting a steady approach to regulatory compliance and a lack of recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical commercial or light utility usage pattern for a 12-year-old vehicle. The data shows a steady increase from 102,878 miles in March 2022 to 126,097 miles in March 2026, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year over the last four years. This represents a significant decrease from the historical average of 10,508 miles per year, indicating the vehicle has seen lighter usage in recent years. The absence of sudden mileage jumps or long periods of inactivity suggests regular, predictable operation. While the MOT record is exceptionally clean, a physical inspection should focus on components that typically fall outside the scope of a standard MOT test. Given the vehicle has surpassed the 120,000-mile mark, a buyer should scrutinise the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers for signs of perished rubber or leaks. The underside should be checked for structural corrosion, particularly around the rear axle and subframes, which often develops on older Ford Transit models. The buyer should also verify the service history to complement the clean MOT record. Since the MOT does not assess engine health, oil degradation, or timing belt intervals, these should be confirmed via service receipts. Checking the brake discs for heavy pitting and the tyres for uneven wear will help determine if the driver has been mindful of the mechanical load placed on the drivetrain during its recent period of lighter use.
