2020 Ford Transit Custom 300LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · B16 AAR

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with four consecutive MOT passes and a near absence of defects since 2023. The most recent inspection on 16 March 2026 maintained this trend, though it introduced a single advisory regarding the offside front tyre being worn close to the legal limit and showing edge wear. With 47,200 miles recorded over approximately six years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 7,867 miles per annum. This usage pattern is typical for a light commercial vehicle of this age, suggesting a steady application of use rather than extreme heavy-duty cycling or prolonged periods of inactivity. Mechanically, this level of accumulation generally means that primary drivetrain components and suspension systems have not been subjected to excessive fatigue, though standard wear on consumables remains a factor. The advisory regarding the offside front tyre requires immediate resolution to ensure the vehicle remains roadworthy. The specific notation of edge wear suggests that the tyre is not wearing evenly across its tread. This often indicates a requirement for a four-wheel alignment check to ensure the tracking is correct, as uneven wear can accelerate the degradation of new tyres and potentially affect steering precision. During the physical inspection and test drive, the buyer should specifically monitor the steering response and feel for any vibration through the steering wheel at motorway speeds. While the MOT history is relatively clean, the presence of edge wear on a single front tyre warrants a close examination of the front suspension linkages and steering rack for any play, as these components influence tyre contact patches. Checking the remaining tread depth on all other tyres will provide a clearer picture of the current consumable status.
