2017 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · YN67 VSE

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistently clean MOT history. The most recent test on 17 June 2026 at 39,042 miles resulted in no defects recorded, maintaining a stable trend of perfect passes over the last five years. This streak of zero advisories suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered the mechanical or structural degradation typically seen in older commercial vehicles. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old van, averaging approximately 4,338 miles per year. Between the July 2022 test at 27,213 miles and the July 2024 test at 35,186 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 4,000 miles annually. The usage remains remarkably consistent, with the most recent interval of 896 miles recorded between July 2025 and June 2026. Such low usage indicates short-distance urban driving or infrequent use, which reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine-related components. While the digital record shows no faults, a buyer should focus on components susceptible to low-mileage neglect. Vehicles that sit for long periods or travel short distances often suffer from perished rubber components, suspension bushings, and seized brake calipers. An inspection should check for surface corrosion on brake discs and verify the condition of the tyres for age cracking despite adequate tread depth. Given the age of the vehicle, a structural check for early-stage corrosion on the sills remains prudent, though the MOT history has not yet flagged any integrity issues.
