2014 Ford Transit 125 T350 RWD Heavy oil · YS63 UEH

This 2014 Ford Transit 125 T350 presents a clean MOT record with no advisories or failures across all five tests logged. The most recent test on 6 January 2023 at 175,144 miles passed first-time with zero defects. That is over three and a half years ago. A fresh MOT has not been recorded since early 2023, so there is no verified evidence of roadworthiness covering the last three and a half years of use. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, but the absence of a recent test means the current condition is unconfirmed. The mileage accumulation is notable. Between the June 2019 pass at 118,921 miles and the January 2022 pass at 158,911 miles, the van covered roughly 40,000 miles in two and a half years. That is around 16,000 miles per year and consistent with intensive commercial use. Between January 2022 and January 2023, the van added just over 16,000 miles, maintaining the same high annual rate. Since the January 2023 test at 175,144 miles, no further MOT records exist. If the van has remained in service, it could have accumulated another 40,000 to 50,000 miles without any documented inspection. That gap raises questions about ongoing servicing and component condition. With no recurring faults on record, there is no pattern of specific defects to flag. However, a van of this age and mileage operating at roughly 14,595 miles per year will have subjected its suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, calipers, and drivetrain components to sustained load cycles. Rear brake binding and handbrake imbalance are common on heavily used Transits, and corrosion around the rear chassis, outriggers, and brake lines should be inspected carefully. The exhaust system and DPF system also warrant close attention given the mileage profile. A buyer should arrange an independent inspection focusing on structural corrosion, suspension wear, brake condition, and whether the engine and gearbox show signs of neglected servicing. The clean MOT history is encouraging, but the three-and-a-half-year gap since the last test means the van's current mechanical state can only be confirmed by a hands-on assessment.
