2015 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · YM65 ABO

The vehicle's MOT history shows a stable trend in recent years, with the most recent recorded test in February 2022 showing a clean pass with no defects. While the record shows two failures in 2020 and 2021, these appear to have been resolved quickly, as subsequent tests passed without advisories. The lack of recent data since early 2022 suggests the vehicle has not been tested for over four years, meaning the current roadworthiness cannot be verified from these records alone. The mileage accumulation is significant, with the vehicle covering 201,567 miles over its lifespan. Between the February 2020 test at 147,632 miles and the February 2022 test at 201,567 miles, the van covered 53,935 miles in just two years. This represents an average of over 26,000 miles per year during that period, which is considerably higher than the 18,324 annual average for the vehicle's total age. This intensive usage pattern places heavy stress on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on high-wear components. Given the high mileage, the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers is critical. The previous failures in 2020 and 2021 indicate that the vehicle has required remedial work to meet standards, so a close examination of the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding is necessary. The chassis and structural integrity should also be scrutinized for corrosion, particularly around the subframes and sills, which is common for high-mileage commercial vehicles. Because the most recent MOT data is outdated, a fresh inspection is required to check for tyre tread depth, wiper blade condition, and exhaust emissions to ensure the vehicle remains compliant with modern standards.
