2020 Ford Transit 350 Leader Ecoblue 2.0L Diesel · YM70 AAF

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test conducted on 17 October 2025 at 9,215 miles returned no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has remained in a condition that meets statutory standards without mechanical failure or structural degradation appearing over the last three testing cycles. The usage pattern is exceptionally low for a six-year-old van, averaging approximately 1,536 miles per year. Between the October 2023 test at 4,443 miles and the November 2024 test at 6,603 miles, the vehicle covered only 2,160 miles in thirteen months. Another 2,612 miles were recorded before the October 2025 test. This low mileage suggests the vehicle has seen light commercial or private use, though it also raises the possibility of potential issues associated with long periods of inactivity. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by low-mileage operation. The buyer must check for flat spotted tyres and corrosion on brake discs which often occurs when a vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. The inspector should also examine rubber components and suspension bushes for cracking or perish, as these materials degrade over time regardless of distance driven. Ensuring the fluid levels and oil quality are correct is vital for the EcoBlue engine's health after such low usage.
