2018 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · AF18 GPO

The 2018 Ford Transit presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 February 2026 at 43,301 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of passes since the earliest entry in the supplied history. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across any test, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the MOT regime. Recorded mileage shows consistently low annual use for a light commercial vehicle of this age. The 2022 test on 12 April at 21,508 miles and the 2023 test on 11 February at 22,651 miles reveal only 1,143 miles covered in roughly ten months, followed by steady annual increments of around 8,000 to 6,300 miles through to 43,301 miles in February 2026. The absence of any failed tests or advisories points to a sparse but clean record, with no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished MOT trail. Low mileage combined with the 2022 to 2023 near-dormant period raises the risk of perished rubber components such as suspension bushes, door seals, and brake hoses that annual testing may not expose if visually sound. Standing time can also encourage corrosion to begin on chassis rails and sills even where the tester recorded no structural defects. Check the brake discs and calipers for pitting from disuse, and verify the condition of tyres for sidewall cracking unrelated to tread depth. Inspect the exhaust emissions system and diesel particulate filter given the light duty cycle, as regen cycles may have been missed. The record implies a carefully used or seasonally stored van, but in-person checks on structural integrity and hidden wear remain prudent before purchase.
