2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · BN18 YLX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-08-23 at 100,475 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Subsequent tests in 2024 and 2021 also passed without issues, suggesting consistent upkeep. However, the failed 2021-02-08 test at identical mileage to the following day’s pass raises questions about potential unresolved concerns, though no defects were logged. Overall, the record shows no critical failures in the last four years, but the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into minor wear. The vehicle’s mileage of 100,475 miles over eight years equates to approximately 12,559 miles annually, exceeding average usage. A significant gap between the 2021-02-09 pass (48,963 miles) and 2024-07-18 pass (76,609 miles) suggests rapid mileage accumulation, which could accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and drivetrain parts. The absence of recurring issues in MOT records implies no systemic faults, but high annual mileage increases the likelihood of hidden degradation in non-visual systems. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension for worn coil springs or bushings, given the high mileage, and check brake systems for uneven disc wear or caliper binding. The 2021 failed test, though unexplained, warrants scrutiny of potential unresolved mechanical or emissions-related issues. Structural corrosion should also be assessed, as heavy use without regular maintenance can exacerbate rust in underbody components. The MOT history lacks detail on these areas, so a physical inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition.
