2018 Ford Transit Courier 1.5L Diesel · BG18 AAZ

The 2018 Ford Transit Courier demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend, with no defects recorded in its most recent MOT on 2025-12-03 at 77,619 miles. Previous tests from 2024-10-14 (75,541 miles), 2023-11-03 (73,129 miles), and 2022-09-26 (63,639 miles) also showed passes, indicating consistent compliance. However, a duplicate entry for 2022-09-26 lists both a pass and a fail with no defects, suggesting a potential administrative error. Despite this, the absence of recorded faults in the last four tests implies the vehicle has been maintained to acceptable standards. The mileage progression aligns with an average of 9,702 miles annually, reflecting typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle. A notable jump from 63,639 miles in 2022 to 73,129 miles in 2023 suggests a 9,500-mile increase within 14 months, which may indicate periods of heavy use or infrequent MOTs. The 2025 test at 77,619 miles is the most recent, but the gap since the 2024 test (14 months) exceeds the recommended annual interval, raising questions about the vehicle’s maintenance consistency. A buyer should inspect for signs of wear in suspension components, such as worn bushes or coil springs, which may not surface in MOT tests. The lack of recorded corrosion or structural issues is positive, but the 2022 failed test—despite no defects—warrants scrutiny to confirm if it relates to emissions or procedural errors. Brake discs, calipers, and exhaust systems should also be checked, as these components often degrade over time without immediate MOT failures. Overall, the vehicle appears mechanically sound but requires a thorough pre-purchase inspection to verify its condition beyond recorded data.
