2017 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · BV67 TLN

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes without failures. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 48,276 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This stable trend of perfect scores across five years suggests the vehicle has been maintained well and has not suffered from the mechanical degradation or structural corrosion typically seen in older commercial vans. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old Transit, averaging approximately 5,364 miles per year. Between the September 2021 test at 11,808 miles and the September 2025 test at 48,276 miles, the vehicle covered 36,468 miles. This low annual usage indicates light use, which generally preserves the integrity of the drivetrain, engine components, and suspension assembly. However, low-mileage vehicles can suffer from age-related perishation of rubber components or flat-spotting tyres if the van sat stationary for extended periods. While the digital record is flawless, a physical inspection should focus on components affected by time and sitting rather than just distance. A buyer should check for signs of perished rubber parts, specifically suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which may crack regardless of the low mileage. Given the age of the vehicle, the brake discs should be inspected for heavy surface pitting if the van was not used frequently. The chassis should also be examined for any structural rust, ensuring that the low mileage has not masked environmental damage to the frame.
