2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · YP68 AAU

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness based on a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 27 October 2025 at 106,886 miles passed with no defects recorded, maintaining a stable trend of excellence over the last five years. This suggests that the previous owners maintained a proactive approach to repairs and addressed any minor issues before they could result in test failures. The mileage pattern indicates consistent and high usage, averaging approximately 13,300 miles per year over the eight-year period. Between October 2021 and September 2022, the vehicle covered 18,841 miles, representing a significant spike in activity compared to earlier years. However, since 2022, the mileage accumulation has settled into a more regular rate of roughly 1,800 to 2,000 miles per annual test interval. This steady usage is typical for a commercial vehicle and suggests the drivetrain has been subjected to regular operation rather than suffering from long periods of standing. While the record shows no recurring advisories or mechanical failures, a physical inspection should focus on components prone to wear on high-mileage vans. A buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue or tearing, as the high mileage puts considerable stress on these parts. Given the age, checking the brake discs for uneven wear and ensuring the calipers are not binding is also essential. The structural integrity of the chassis and floor sills should be verified to ensure that the high-mileage use has not led to hidden corrosion that the MOT tester might not yet flagged.
