2007 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · YK07 USY

The vehicle is currently unroadworthy and exhibits a catastrophic decline in maintenance standards. The most recent test in November 2025 at 73,575 miles resulted in a high volume of critical failures, including major structural corrosion and multiple mechanical defects. This represents a sharp transition from the clean record seen in 2017 to a state of advanced deterioration, suggesting the vehicle has suffered from significant neglect in its later years. The recorded mileage of 73,575 miles is exceptionally low for a 19-year-old Transit, averaging under 4,000 miles per annum. However, there is a concerning six-year gap in testing between March 2019 and November 2025, during which the vehicle covered only 7,372 miles. This 패턴 indicates the vehicle sat stationary for long periods, which likely explains the advanced state of the structural rust and the failure of rubber-based components. Low mileage does not offset the damage caused by age-related oxidation and stagnation. A buyer should avoid this vehicle due to the severity of the structural integrity issues. The 2025 report identified significant corrosion on the sill, step box, chassis leg, and inner wing, which compromises the rigidity of the assembly. Beyond the structural failures, the braking system is in poor condition with significantly worn front discs, fluctuating service brakes, and a binding rear service brake. The presence of four failed tyres with structural tears and an excessive oil leak from the timing cover indicates that the required repairs will likely exceed the market value of the van.
