2022 Ford Transit 460 Trend Ecoblue

CarHunch analysed 208 real MOT records for the 2022 Ford Transit 460 Trend Ecoblue. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2022 Ford Transit 460 Trend EcoBlue passes its MOT on first attempt 86% of the time, which is a solid 6 percentage points above the UK average and suggests this model is holding up well mechanically. The dangerous defect rate sits at 9.1%, which is reassuringly low and well below concerning thresholds for a working van.

At just under 17,000 miles median, these vehicles are still very young and lightly used, so the low failure count of 0.36 per vehicle reflects that honeymoon period rather than proven long-term durability. The 1.6 advisories per vehicle are mostly minor wear items you'd expect at this mileage; if you're buying one used, get a full pre-purchase inspection focused on brake condition and suspension components, as these tend to be the early warning signs on Transits under load.

What to check before buying a 2022 Ford Transit 460 Trend Ecoblue

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.
