Our Verdict
This 2015 Ford Transit 2.2 TDCi has pass
Given the high mileage for a commercial van of this age, ask the seller for the full service history — particularly evidence of cambelt replacement on the 2.2 TDCi, which is generally recommended every 10 years or 150,000 miles. Verify that the vehicle has had its under-bonnet fire risk recall work completed; Ford issued a safety recall affecting certain Transit 2.2 TDCi models and this must be confirmed via a Ford dealer using the registration before you commit. Inspect the rear wheel bearing area carefully, as slight play was flagged in 2023; even though the vehicle subsequently passed, bearings can progress quickly on a working van.
Expect fuel economy in the region of 30-36 mpg for the 2.2 TDCi depending on load and driving style, with a fuel tank of around 80 litres. Road tax for a diesel van registered before March 2017 is £290 per year for the standard rate, though this YS65AAX is a commercial vehicle so the rate may differ — confirm via the DVLA. Insurance for a 2015 Transit typically falls into groups 7-9, so premiums for a courier or tradesperson should be reasonable, but check commercial van quotes specifically. Annual maintenance including tyres, brake work and routine servicing on a high-mileage 2.2 TDCi commonly runs £600-£1,200 depending on use.
Inspect all brake pipes thoroughly — this vehicle has had corrosion advisories on the front pipes in both 2024 and 2025, and on the rear pipes in 2024, indicating an ongoing corrosion pattern that will probably require pipe replacement soon. Examine the exhaust back box and rear silencer for signs of blowing or welding repairs, since a major leak caused the only MOT failure in 2023. Check the rear wheel bearings for play by rocking each rear wheel, as slight play was recorded in 2023, and also look at the tyres for damage and uneven wear consistent with a working van.
This YS65AAX Ford Transit was first registered in November 2015 and is powered by a 2.2-litre Duratorq diesel engine, paired with manual transmission. Five MOT tests are recorded between 2022 and 2025, with four passes and one fail in September 2023, the failure covering wheel bearing play, a tyre nail, a non-functioning side repeater, and a major exhaust back box leak. Mileage has climbed from 65,834 in 2022 to 92,277 in 2025, an average of roughly 8,800 miles per year — close to the Ford Transit model average of 8,946. The aggregate Ford Transit pass rate of 74.3% across 734,234 vehicles suggests this individual example sits in a moderate bracket.
Across 734,234 Ford Transit examples analysed, the average MOT pass rate is 74.3%, with the most common failure reasons being headlamp issues, corrosion, and tyres — corrosion being particularly relevant to this vehicle's recorded advisories.
