2020 Ford Transit Custom 280LMTD Eblue A 2.0L Hybrid electric · DY67 ACE

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a reactive approach to brake component replacement. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 48,408 miles flagged worn nearside and offside front brake discs alongside a thin offside front pad, the vehicle passed without immediate failure. This suggests that the owner addresses mechanical issues only when they approach the legal limit or an advisory threshold rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage progression is consistent with a six-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Data shows a steady increase from 26,459 miles in September 2023 to 38,080 miles in September 2024, finally reaching 48,408 miles by October 2025. This interval of roughly 10,000 to 12,000 miles per year reflects a regular usage pattern, which explains the consistent wear observed on the braking-related components across the various MOT inspections. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system, given the recurring reports of thin pads across all four wheels in 2023 and worn discs in 2025. The tester specifically noted front disc wear in the latest record, which often necessitates immediate replacement alongside new pads to ensure even stopping performance. Because this is a Ford Transit Custom, the inspection should also evaluate the suspension bushes and wish arms for signs of premature wear, as these were not highlighted in the record but are common points of failure on vehicles at this mileage.
