2010 Ford Transit 2.4L Diesel · YP60 AEG

The 2010 Ford Transit passed its most recent MOT on 2024-11-21 at 107,682 miles, but a failed test on 2024-11-20 at the same mileage raises questions. No defects were recorded in either test, suggesting the failure may have been a procedural error or unrelated to mechanical condition. The absence of recorded issues in prior tests from 2021 to 2023 indicates a stable maintenance trend, with no recurring faults in brakes, suspension, or structural integrity. The vehicle’s mileage of 107,682 miles aligns with its 16-year age, averaging 6,730 miles annually. A significant jump from 90,210 miles in 2021 to 102,645 in 2023 suggests accelerated usage, while the minimal increase between 2022 and 2023 (90,417 to 90,210) implies possible inactivity or infrequent use. These patterns do not indicate excessive wear on consumables or major components, as no advisories or failures were logged. Despite the clean MOT history, the failed test on 2024-11-20 warrants scrutiny. Buyers should verify the vehicle’s service records for unrecorded repairs and inspect for signs of hidden issues, such as corrosion in the chassis or suspension bushings, which may not trigger MOT failures. The lack of defects in prior tests supports the vehicle’s reliability, but the recent failed test underscores the need for a pre-purchase inspection to confirm mechanical soundness.
