2018 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · CX68 KOU

The 2018 Ford Transit presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 29 September 2025 at 109,845 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable across the available history, with every annual examination either passing or showing no faults, and no recurring advisories or mechanical concerns flagged by testers. Mileage stands at 109,845 against an eight-year lifespan, equating to roughly 13,731 miles per year, which is high for a vehicle of this age and points to consistent commercial-style use. The records show stepped accumulation: 51,691 miles at the 26 September 2022 test, 68,882 by 18 September 2023, 91,734 at the 17 September 2024 examination, and 109,845 a year later. The 17 September 2024 entry lists both a fail and a pass on the same date at identical mileage with no defects recorded, indicating an administrative retest rather than a genuine mechanical fault. No long dormant periods or irregular gaps appear in the sequence. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high annual mileage and the Transit's known susceptibility to wear in those areas. The absence of corrosion or structural integrity advisories in the MOT data is reassuring, but eight years of heavy use can conceal fatigued drivetrain mounts or early exhaust degradation not caught in a roadside test. Given the sparse but clean record, focus the viewing on tyre tread depth across all axles, fluid leaks from the turbo and transmission, and any play in the steering linkage. The previous keeper clearly kept the van to test standard, yet no history of consumable replacement or advisory tracking exists to confirm proactive care beyond minimum compliance.
