AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle's recent MOT history shows an improving trend in terms of test outcomes. Following a failure on 4 November 2024, the vehicle achieved two consecutive passes on 5 November 2024 and 13 October 2025 with no defects or advisories recorded. This recent period of clean certificates suggests that the issues causing the 2024 failure were addressed. The vehicle has covered 122,984 miles over its seven-year lifespan, averaging approximately 17,569 miles per year. This represents high annual usage for a 2019 model. The MOT records show consistent annual testing from November 2022 through to October 2025, indicating a regular inspection pattern despite the high mileage accumulation. Because the recent tests show no recorded defects, the MOT history does not highlight specific recurring mechanical failures. However, the high mileage suggests a buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of high-wear components. Focus should be placed on the suspension system, including bushes and coil springs, as well as checking for brake disc wear and binding calipers. Given the vehicle's age and usage, inspecting the underside for structural corrosion and checking the condition of the exhaust system is also necessary. buying_score: 72 risk_level: Low.

Our Verdict

This Ford Transit Custom 300 Leader presents a generally consistent MOT record, making it a viable prospect for those seeking a work vehicle. While the high mileage is a significant factor, the recent history of clean passes suggests the vehicle has been presented for testing in a compliant state.

When inspecting this Transit Custom, prioritise the condition of the drivetrain and suspension, as these are common wear points for high-mileage commercial vehicles. Even though the recent MOTs show no advisories, verify the service history to see if major components like the timing belt or clutch have been replaced, which is expected for a van with over 120,000 miles.

Negotiate based on the high mileage and the potential for upcoming wear-and-tear repairs. Since the vehicle is a 'Leader' trim, it is a utilitarian model; ensure all interior controls and cabin features are functional, as these are often overlooked during a quick inspection.

Running a 1995cc diesel Transit Custom involves significant fuel costs, particularly for high-mileage users. You should factor in the cost of AdBlue, which is required for this model to meet emissions standards, alongside standard diesel consumption.

Annual costs include VED (Road Tax), which for a commercial vehicle is typically a flat rate, and commercial-grade insurance. Maintenance should be budgeted for aggressively; at this mileage, you should set aside funds for tyres, brake discs, and potential suspension work, which are common failure points for the Transit Custom model range.

While the recent MOTs do not show specific defects, you must inspect the headlamps and drive shaft joints, as these are statistically the most common failure points for this model. Check the tyres for uneven wear, which can indicate tracking issues or overloaded suspension components.

Examine the bodywork for signs of heavy commercial use, such as dents or rust, especially around the wheel arches and sills. Ensure that all doors, including the sliding side door and rear cargo doors, operate smoothly and that the locking mechanisms are fully functional.

This 2019 Ford Transit Custom has covered 122,984 miles since its registration in December 2019. The MOT history shows four clean passes and one failure in November 2024, which was immediately rectified. Given the high usage, the vehicle has been subjected to frequent testing, with the most recent pass occurring in October 2025.

The Ford Transit Custom is a high-volume commercial vehicle; while generally robust, aggregate data shows that headlamps, drive shaft joints, and tyres are recurring MOT failure points.
