2019 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · BW68 FJC

The vehicle currently holds a clean roadworthiness status with a stable and improving maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 9 June 2025 at 100,527 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the previous owner successfully addressed any prior issues. This follows a pattern where mechanical failures in early 2023 and 2024 were rectified immediately, resulting in clean sheets for the subsequent annual tests. The mileage profile reflects high commercial usage typical for a seven-year-old van, averaging approximately 14,300 miles per annum. There is a significant surge in activity between May 2024 and June 2025, where the vehicle covered 15,322 miles in just over thirteen months. This rapid accumulation contrasts with the 11,000-mile interval seen between the 2023 tests. The consistent usage suggests the vehicle has been utilized regularly for work purposes, which places consistent stress on heavy-duty drivetrain and suspension components. Given the high mileage and the nature of the Transit Custom, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the front suspension and braking system. High mileage often accelerates the wear of wish arm bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, which may not always trigger an MOT failure until they become critical. You should check for signs of thinning brake discs and binding calipers, as the recent history shows the vehicle is being used under heavy loads. Inspecting the chassis for corrosion around the mounting points is also essential to ensure that the high-mileage use has not compromised the structural integrity of the frame.
