2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · YP68 AAE

The 2018 Ford Transit Custom passed its most recent MOT on 14 November 2025 at 139,118 miles, leaving it roughly eight months expired as of today. The maintenance trend reads as stable. The tester logged only a nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit on its edge, a minor consumable fault. No mechanical, suspension, or structural defects appear across the five-year record. Mileage sits high for an eight-year vehicle. The van covered 97,148 miles by 25 October 2023, rose to 116,931 by 23 October 2024, then reached 139,118 by November 2025. That averages near 17,400 miles a year and shows steady annual use rather than standing periods. The clean pass sheets in 2022, 2023, and 2024 suggest the prior operator kept basic upkeep current despite the load. The single failure came on 3 November 2022 at 73,076 miles when the nearside headlamp dropped out on dipped beam. The same-day pass after repair shows the fault was isolated electrical, not a pattern. Still, a buyer should confirm both headlamp units and wiring looms are sound, since transit vans suffer vibration damage to connectors. Inspect the nearside front suspension bush and tyre sidewall at the recorded wear edge, and check brake discs and calipers for transit-typical wear from the high annual mileage. Verify underneath for exhaust corrosion and chassis structural integrity, as the record gives no advisory cover on those points.
