2009 Ford Transit 2.2L Diesel · YX59 ATK

This vehicle presents an exceptionally clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 December 2025 at 42,568 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to November 2021, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a roadworthy state without the recurring failures often seen in commercial vans of this vintage. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 2,504 miles per year. The distance covered between the November 2021 test at 33,910 miles and the December 2025 test at 42,568 miles shows a steady, low-volume usage pattern. There are no erratic jumps in mileage that would suggest periods of heavy commercial use or undocumented fleet service. Low mileage on a seventeen year old Transit often suggests the vehicle has spent significant time stationary. While the MOT record shows no mechanical defects, a buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of the braking system for binding calipers or seized sliders. Rubber components, including suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, can perish due to age regardless of the low odometer reading. The absence of any recorded corrosion or structural advisories across five years of testing is positive. However, given the age of the chassis, a manual check for surface rust on the sills and underside is recommended. The lack of any recorded faults suggests a diligent previous owner, but the primary risk remains the degradation of consumables that deteriorate through time rather than use.
