2022 Ford Transit Custom 280 Trend Eblue 2.0L Diesel · AE72 KMF

The vehicle presents a stable and sound roadworthiness status based on the available DVSA records. The most recent MOT test conducted on 20 November 2025 at 36,010 miles passed without any defects or advisories. This clean pass indicates the van met all required structural, mechanical, and emissions standards at that point in time, reflecting a maintenance trend that is neither worsening nor deteriorating. The recorded mileage of 36,010 miles aligns closely with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 9,000 miles per year since its 2022 registration. This accumulation rate is typical for a commercial vehicle of this type and does not suggest excessive long-term standing or unusually high wear. The single recorded test entry provides a limited chronological window, but the steady mileage progression implies consistent, regular use rather than prolonged periods of inactivity. Although the MOT history is entirely clean, a physical inspection remains essential to verify the ongoing condition of high-wear components. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the brake discs and pads for uneven wear, alongside checking the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, which are common failure points on heavily utilized Transits. Inspecting the underbody and wheel arches for corrosion is also prudent, as structural rust can develop silently despite a clean MOT outcome. Finally, verifying the condition of the exhaust system and checking for any fluid leaks around the engine and drivetrain will confirm whether the van has been genuinely well-maintained or simply presented in a temporary state of repair for its last test.
