2018 FORD TRANSIT2.0L Diesel

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on January 20 2026 at 112,249 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the vehicle has consistently avoided major failures over the last five testing cycles. While the 2026 test noted a restricted inspection of the adult belt due to a child seat, the lack of mechanical defects suggests that the primary components are currently functioning within acceptable operational parameters. The mileage profile indicates high usage for an eight-year-old van, averaging approximately 14,000 miles per annum. There is a significant increase in usage between January 2024 and January 2025, where the vehicle covered 17,235 miles in a single year. This accelerated rate puts greater strain on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems compared to lower-mileage examples. However, the consistent annual testing intervals suggest the vehicle has been used regularly in a commercial or daily capacity rather than left to endure long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that have shown vulnerability in the past. The 2022 test flagged a slightly twisted nearside front brake hose, and the 2023 record identified a nearside front tyre worn to the edge. These findings suggest potential issues with wheel alignment or uneven wear on the front axle. Given the high mileage accumulation, a thorough check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and the condition of the brake discs is essential to ensure that heavy-duty components are not nearing the end of their functional life.
