2020 Ford Transit Custom 300 Trend Eblue 2.0L Diesel · CV20 UML

The vehicle presents a currently roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the clean pass recorded on 25 June 2025 at 103,296 miles with no defects listed. Prior tests show no outstanding advisories or mechanical faults carried forward, indicating the previous operator addressed test requirements to a passable standard each year. The recorded mileage sits high for a six-year-old van, averaging roughly 17,216 miles annually. The record shows 66,357 miles at the June 2023 test, rising to 85,979 miles by June 2024 and 103,296 miles by June 2025, a consistent yearly accumulation near 19,000 miles with no standing gaps. Two failed tests on 7 June 2023 and 19 June 2024 at identical mileages to the subsequent passes suggest administrative or minor non-mechanical rejections rather than deferred repairs, as no defects were logged on either failure. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the high annual load and light commercial duty cycle. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories across all entries implies body and chassis integrity held up, but dense urban delivery use at this mileage wears steering joints and drivetrain mounts unseen on a pass certificate. Verify service history for clutch, turbo and dual-mass flywheel interval work, since the MOT does not capture internal drivetrain condition. The clean record reflects basic statutory compliance rather than confirmed component renewal, so pre-purchase mechanical assessment remains warranted.
