2007 Ford Transit 100 T350l RWD

CarHunch analysed 259 real MOT records for the 2007 Ford Transit 100 T350l RWD. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

This 2007 Transit 100 T350L is a genuinely difficult MOT proposition—just 37.8% pass first time, nearly half the UK average of 80%, though the lack of dangerous defects (0%) is a small mercy. Diesel variants, which make up almost all of these vehicles, fare no better at 37.5%, so fuel type won't help you here.

At 148,000 miles these Transits are clocking serious mileage for their age, and the 0.87 average failures per vehicle tells you wear-related problems are the norm rather than the exception. If you're considering one, budget for a full pre-purchase inspection focusing on the engine bay, suspension, and braking components—expect to find and fix something before it passes.

What to check before buying a 2007 Ford Transit 100 T350l RWD

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.
