FORD TRANSIT CUSTOM2018 · 2.0L Diesel

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 8 July 2025 at 97,938 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passing tests without advisories, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards. Mileage accumulation has increased significantly in the last two years. Between 6 July 2022 and 21 July 2023, the vehicle covered 14,228 miles. This pace accelerated sharply between 21 July 2023 and 9 July 2024, where it added 17,339 miles. The most recent interval from July 2024 to July 2025 saw a further increase of 13,076 miles. This high annual average indicates heavy commercial use, which typically places greater stress on the drivetrain and suspension components. The absence of MOT advisories is unusual for a Transit Custom of this age and mileage. While the record is clean, the high usage suggests that consumables like brake discs, pads, and suspension bushes are likely nearing the end of their service life. A buyer should physically inspect the underbody for corrosion and check the condition of the coil springs, as these are common failure points for this model that may not have been flagged yet. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes and filter replacements align with the high mileage. The MOT only confirms the vehicle is legal, not that it has been serviced to manufacturer specifications. Focus on checking for any signs of oil leaks or clutch wear, as the rapid mileage increase over the last 36 months puts these mechanical systems under sustained pressure.
