FORD TRANSIT CUSTOM 300LIMITD EBLUE2021 · 2.0L DIESEL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in February 2026 at 93,234 miles with no defects recorded. This represents an improving trend in maintenance standards following a minor failure in August 2025. While the previous test identified specific failures related to lighting and tyre wear, the clean sheet from the most recent inspection suggests that the owner has addressed the flagged issues and maintained the vehicle to a functional standard thereafter. The Ford Transit shows a high usage profile, averaging approximately 18,600 miles per year over its five-year lifespan. Between the August 2025 test and February 2026 test, the vehicle covered 10,818 miles in just six months. This rapid accumulation is consistent with heavy commercial use or long-distance commuting, which places significant stress on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems. The consistent testing intervals indicate the vehicle is used regularly rather than sitting idle for long periods. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the front suspension and geometry, as the August 2025 advisory noted both front tyres were worn on the edge, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn control arms. Given the high mileage, a physical check of the brake discs for thinning and calipers for binding is also essential. While the MOT record does not flag structural corrosion, the high-mileage nature of this van necessitates a thorough look at the chassis for signs of rust, common in heavy-duty work vehicles.
