2018 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · CV68 DSO

The 2018 Ford Transit presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 September 2025 at 95,242 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of annual passes since 2021. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-year DVSA history, which indicates the vehicle has not required corrective work at test stage. Annual mileage has accumulated in a steady, typical pattern for a light commercial vehicle of this age. From the 28 September 2021 test at 42,710 miles to the 23 September 2025 test at 95,242 miles, the van covered 52,532 miles across four twelve-month intervals, averaging roughly 13,133 miles per year against a lifetime mean near 11,905. The record shows no gaps, no sudden jumps, and no stalled periods; each test falls within days of the prior September date, reflecting disciplined MoT compliance by previous operators. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the spotless test ledger. The absence of advisories means worn suspension bushes, corroding brake lines, or fatigued coil springs were not flagged, yet MoT passes confirm only minimum legal condition on the test day. Examine the subframe and chassis rails for structural rust given Transit vans suffer sill and spring hanger corrosion in winter salting. Check brake disc thickness and caliper slide movement, as binding calipers escape detection until wear becomes excessive. Verify the service history independently since no test ever cited emissions or drivetrain concerns. Inspect tyre sidewalls and exhaust hangers for age-related cracking not captured by tread readings. The clean record implies conscientious upkeep, but eight years of use on a 95k-mile van warrants confirmation of cambelt interval and gearbox oil condition before purchase.
