2021 Ford Transit Custom 300LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · D23 PAE

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend following recent mechanical repairs. The most recent inspection conducted in February 2026 at 119,652 miles resulted in a pass with no advisories. This indicates that the mechanical issues identified in previous years were addressed, and the vehicle currently meets the minimum DVSA standards for road safety and environmental emissions. The mileage profile reflects heavy commercial usage for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 24,000 miles per annum. Between January 2024 and February 2025, the vehicle covered 24,826 miles, followed by an additional 27,148 miles in the twelve months leading up to the 2026 test. This consistent high mileage suggests the van is used for long-distance transit work, which typically accelerates the wear on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system compared to lower-mile counterparts. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on the CV boots and drive shafts, as the January 2024 test flagged severe deterioration on both the nearside and offside outer drive shaft joints. While these were likely replaced, the high mileage increases the likelihood of premature rubber failure or grease leakage in the future. Given the rapid mileage accumulation, inspect the suspension for signs of play in the bushings and check the brake discs for thinning or glazing, as these components endure significant stress under heavy commercial cycles.
