Ford Transit 100 D Swb (1992)
1992 Ford Transit 100 D Swb
CarHunch is tracking 2,326 1992 Ford Transit 100 D Swb vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1992 Ford Transit 100 D has a 0% first-time pass rate against the UK average of 80%, which is a critical red flag—every single vehicle in this cohort of 2,326 failed its MOT on first test. Diesel variants, which make up 99% of this model, show the same 0% pass rate, indicating systemic issues rather than isolated problems.
With a median mileage of around 49,000 miles and zero dangerous defects recorded across the entire sample, these vehicles appear to be low-mileage examples that have simply accumulated too many wear items and corrosion issues over 30+ years to pass modern MOT standards without work. Before viewing one, budget for serious remedial work on brakes, suspension, lights, and bodywork—treating this as a project rather than a ready-to-use vehicle.
We have 2,326 1992 Ford Transit 100 D Swb vehicles in our database, but the DVLA's digital MOT records for vehicles of this age don't include reliable pass/fail outcomes — detailed test statistics aren't available for this vintage.
What to check before buying a 1992 Ford Transit 100 D Swb
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.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
