The Ford Transit Connect L220 D has an overall MOT pass rate of 66.7% across 390 real MOT tests — roughly in line with the UK average.

A typical Ford Transit Connect L220 D owner drives around 5,450 miles per year. If the car you're looking at is significantly above this, expect more wear on suspension, brakes and tyres.
