2018 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · BD68 ABO

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following a clean pass in its most recent MOT test on 19 August 2025 at 99,060 miles. Although the vehicle failed a test exactly one day prior at the same mileage, the lack of recorded defects suggests an administrative error or a minor sensor-related failure that was rectified immediately. Since 2022, the vehicle has maintained a clean record without any recorded mechanical or structural failures. The mileage pattern indicates consistent and high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 12,400 miles per year over the last four years. Between November 2022 and August 2024, the vehicle covered 14,596 miles, showing a steady workload typical of a commercial Transit. The recent jump of 16,918 miles between August 2024 and August 2025 represents an acceleration in annual usage. This high rate of accumulation suggests the vehicle has been used regularly for work, which typically places significant stress on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems. Given the high mileage and the age of the vehicle, a physical inspection should focus on heavy-wear areas common to the Ford Transit chassis. The buyer should examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these often degrade under heavy loads. Structural integrity must also be verified, specifically for corrosion on the sills and subframe, where road salt can accelerate rust over time. While the MOT history is clean, the 100,000-mile threshold necessitates a thorough check of brake discs for thinning and an assessment of the clutch and engine components for leaks.
