2014 Ford Transit 290 2.2L Diesel · YM14 EGF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent inspection on 12 January 2025 at 140,801 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has maintained a clean record since its previous failures. While the history shows a failure in December 2024, the immediate pass just over a month later suggests that any identified defects were addressed promptly, indicating a proactive approach to mechanical repairs by the current owner. At 140,801 miles over twelve years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 11,733 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a light-commercial Ford Transit. The mileage data shows consistent activity, with a 16,000-mile interval recorded between September 2023 and January 2025, and another 13,400-mile gap between August 2022 and September 2023. This regular use suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary, which helps prevent seal degradation and fluid issues from long standing periods. Despite the lack of recorded advisories in the most recent test, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of high-wear components common to high-mileage Transits. Focus specifically on the front suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these often wear out before they trigger a formal MOT failure. Given the mileage, check the brake discs for thinning and the exhaust system for structural corrosion near the mounting points to ensure no hidden structural integrity issues exist that were not explicitly flagged during the standard test.
