2019 FORD TRANSIT CUSTOM 320LMTD EBLUE A2.0L Diesel

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-01-06 recorded a pass at 155,982 miles, but an earlier failure on the same date—despite no defects being listed—raises questions about the test’s accuracy or resolution. The prior tests from 2025-01-02, 2024-01-08, and 2022-09-01 all passed with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance record up to 2025. However, the 2026 failure, combined with the vehicle’s high annual mileage of ~22,283 miles, suggests potential wear on components requiring closer scrutiny. The mileage progression shows consistent annual growth, with 75,735 miles in 2022, 113,851 in 2024, and 155,982 in 2026. This rapid accumulation—particularly the 20,000-mile jump between 2024 and 2025—implies heavy usage, which could accelerate wear on suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust emissions systems. While no structural corrosion or major faults are documented, the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into underlying issues. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn coil springs or binding calipers, as high mileage often affects these parts. Brake discs and pads should be checked for uneven wear, and the exhaust system for leaks or rust. The vehicle’s recent failure, even without recorded defects, warrants a pre-purchase inspection to verify that all systems meet roadworthiness standards, especially given its elevated usage profile.
