2020 Ford Transit Custom 300LMTD Eblue A 2.0L Diesel · AX69 EPD

The vehicle currently presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend following a period of recorded mechanical issues. The most recent test on 23 September 2025 at 103,825 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a clean pass in October 2024 at 77,075 miles, suggesting that the mechanical concerns identified during the 2023 inspection have been successfully addressed. The mileage accumulation is high for a 2020 vehicle, averaging approximately 17,300 miles per year. A significant increase in usage occurred between the October 2024 test and the September 2025 test, where the odometer climbed 26,750 miles in less than a year. This high-intensity usage pattern places increased demand on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems compared to typical light-duty commercial vehicles. The January 2023 inspection at 60,765 miles highlighted several areas of concern that required rectification. The tester flagged a nearside lower coolant leak, deteriorating rear bump stops, and windscreen damage. A failure on that same date also noted headlamp aim issues and a nearside front tyre with exposed cords. While the subsequent clean passes suggest these items were repaired, a buyer should verify the integrity of the cooling system and check the condition of the rear bump stops and suspension components during a physical inspection. Given the rapid mileage increase seen in the last twelve months, a thorough check of the brake discs and pads is advisable. The high annual mileage increases the likelihood of accelerated wear on consumables and potential suspension bush degradation. Focus should remain on the cooling system to ensure the previous leak near the radiator and aircon pipes has been fully resolved and remains sealed under heavy load.
