2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · CV18 WTL

The 2018 Ford Transit Custom presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent test on 13 May 2025 at 111,528 miles returning a pass with no defects recorded. The vehicle cleared its prior annual examinations without fault, indicating no escalating mechanical concerns across the supplied history. Mileage stands at 111,528 against an eight-year lifespan, equating to roughly 13,941 miles per year which is high for this model age and points to sustained commercial-duty use. The records show 83,837 miles on 23 May 2022, jumping to 100,066 by 19 May 2023, then 104,553 at the 1 June 2024 pass after a 29 May 2024 fail at 104,517 miles logged with no defects cited. Such a clean advisory sheet across all tests suggests previous operators kept the van to a basic pass standard without outstanding wear flags, though the brief 2024 fail with zero defects recorded implies an administrative or non-mechanical rejection rather than a rooted fault. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness given the high annual mileage compresses consumable and structural cycles. The absence of corrosion or exhaust emission advisories in the DVLA data is favourable, yet standing moisture exposure on a Transit chassis can hide off-record rust at sill and crossmember junctions. Given the two-decade-old platform sees drivetrain fatigue past 100,000 miles, verify clutch bite and turbo oil seepage on the 2.0 TDCi unit. The 2025 pass confirms legal fitness today, but the sparse defect log offers no insight into pending wear the next owner will absorb.
