Ford Transit 80 Pop D Swb (1993)
1993 Ford Transit 80 Pop D Swb
CarHunch is tracking 560 1993 Ford Transit 80 Pop D Swb vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 1993 Ford Transit 80 has a 0% first-time pass rate against the UK average of 80%, which is a complete failure—every single one of the 560 vehicles tested failed its MOT on first attempt. The diesel variant, which makes up 555 of these vehicles, shows the same 0% pass rate, indicating systematic issues across the entire cohort rather than fuel-type variance.
At 31 years old, any surviving example of this van is already a survivor, but the data suggests these are vehicles in terminal mechanical condition. With zero dangerous defects recorded and zero average failures per vehicle, the figures appear corrupted or incomplete (likely because MOT records for 1993 vehicles are sparse or archived differently), so treat this verdict with caution and have any potential purchase inspected by a diesel van specialist before committing.
We have 560 1993 Ford Transit 80 Pop 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 1993 Ford Transit 80 Pop 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.
