2019 Ford Tourneo Connect

CarHunch analysed 1,889 real MOT records for the 2019 Ford Tourneo Connect. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2019 Ford Tourneo Connect has a first-time pass rate of 85.4%, which sits comfortably above the UK average of 80%, suggesting this model is generally reliable. However, nearly one in four vehicles (22.2%) have recorded a dangerous defect at some point, which is a genuine concern for buyers and something worth investigating during a pre-purchase inspection.

At 28,754 miles median mileage for a five-year-old van, these are moderate miles and haven't caused excessive wear; the 0.88 average failures per vehicle is reasonable, though the 4.4 advisories per vehicle suggests minor maintenance niggles are common. If you're considering one, factor in routine servicing costs and have a mechanic specifically check the brake system and suspension, where dangerous defects tend to cluster.

What to check before buying a 2019 Ford Tourneo Connect

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • ⚠️ 22.2% of these vehicles have had a dangerous defect recorded. Enter the reg below — the full MOT history will show exactly what was flagged and whether it was resolved.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
