2021 Ford Transit Custom 300 Trail Eblue 2.0L Diesel · PK21 AFU

The vehicle presents a clean MOT history with a stable maintenance trend, as evidenced by the most recent test on 5 March 2026 at 164,428 miles. This latest inspection resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories. The absence of failures or recurring issues across the recorded history suggests that the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that meets minimum regulatory requirements without significant structural or mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a five-year-old vehicle. Between the March 2024 test at 107,188 miles and the March 2026 test at 164,428 miles, the vehicle covered 57,240 miles in just two years. This averages to approximately 28,620 miles per annum, which is significantly higher than the UK average. Such heavy usage, particularly in a commercial vehicle like the Transit Custom, places substantial stress on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on high-wear components. Given the rapid mileage accumulation, the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers should be scrutinized for signs of fatigue. The braking system, specifically the discs and calipers, requires close examination for uneven wear or binding, as high-mileage commercial use often leads to premature degradation of these consumables. The underside of the chassis should also be checked for signs of corrosion or structural damage. While the MOT records show no current defects, the heavy annual mileage suggests the vehicle has likely been used for significant transit work. Inspecting the timing belt, water pump, and various drive belts is essential, as these components typically require replacement according to strict intervals that may be approaching or exceeded given the current odometer reading.
