2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · CE07 REY

The August 2025 MOT at 46,257 miles passed without defect, confirming current roadworthiness, but the record shows a recurring pattern of thin front brake pads since the 2021 test, indicating that brake maintenance has been a consistent requirement rather than a one‑off issue. The vehicle’s mileage has risen from 25,719 miles in September 2021 to 46,257 miles in August 2025, an increase of roughly 20,500 miles over four years, or about 5,100 miles per year, which is higher than the average annual mileage for a 2018 model. The most rapid growth occurred between August 2022 and August 2025, with increments of 6,300 to 6,700 miles each year, while the 2022 retest at the same mileage suggests a brief pause in usage. A buyer should therefore inspect the brake system closely, checking pad thickness, disc condition, caliper movement and fluid level, and verify that the wiper blades clear the windscreen fully. Examination of the suspension bushes, coil springs and mounting points for wear or binding is advisable, as is a visual assessment of the chassis and wheel arches for any sign of structural rust that could affect long‑term integrity.
