2018 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · CU18 WJO

This 2018 Ford Transit has a recent MOT pass from March 2026, but the history reveals a persistent and unresolved mechanical pattern. The most significant concern is the recurring advisory for worn suspension arm pins or bushes on both the nearside and offside front. This issue has appeared in every single MOT record since at least February 2023. While these have been noted as not yet resulting in excessive movement, the fact that they have persisted for over three years without being repaired suggests a trend of neglect or a reluctance to address suspension wear. The vehicle's mileage of 90,550 over approximately eight years averages out to about 11,319 miles per year. This is typical usage for a vehicle of this age and type, suggesting it has not been excessively overworked but has seen regular road use. This consistent usage likely explains why the suspension components are gradually degrading. The overall condition trend appears stable but stagnant; the faults are not worsening into failures, but they are certainly not being improved or rectified. The presence of a brake fluctuation advisory in 2024 also suggests that while the vehicle is being maintained enough to pass, the preventative maintenance on wear-and-tear components is minimal. Before purchasing, you must inspect the front suspension thoroughly for any signs of play or knocking sounds when driving over uneven surfaces.
