Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 2 November 2026: the latest record we hold ran out on 9 September 2026; ask the dealer for the current MOT.

It has had 22 MOTs. The latest, on 7 September 2026, failed.

It failed on: offside front position lamp not working; offside front tyre tread pattern not visible over the whole tread area when minimum depth required is 1.0mm; nearside rear tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords; and 1 more.

Advisories at the latest test: front oil leak, but not excessive; offside rear tyre slightly damaged/cracking or perishing; rear registration plate deteriorated but not likely to be misread; and 5 more.

Mileage at that test: 197,898 miles, which matches the advertised 197,895 miles.

Advertised mileage is about 100,300 miles higher than the median mileage of a 2012 Ford Transit on AskCar.
