2020 Ford Transit Connect 1.5L Diesel · YR20 VBN

The vehicle currently presents a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 23 June 2025 at 33,958 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, despite an initial failure on the same day. This suggests a specific issue was identified and rectified immediately prior to the re-test. Since June 2024, the vehicle has maintained a clean record without any advisory notices or mechanical failures. The mileage profile is notably low for a six-year-old van, averaging approximately 5,660 miles per year. Between the July 2023 test at 16,538 miles and the June 2024 test at 26,829 miles, the vehicle covered over 10,000 miles in a year, representing a spike in usage. However, the subsequent interval saw a return to a lower average. This low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and suspension bushings if the vehicle sits for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on signs of age rather than just mileage wear, such as flat-spotting on tyres or perished brake hoses. Because the record shows two failures in 2023 and 2025 without specific defect descriptions listed in the summary, it is vital to verify if these were minor items like light bulbs and wipers or more mechanical faults. Inspect the structural integrity for surface corrosion on the sills and arches, as low-mileage vans can still develop rust despite low odometer readings.
