Our Verdict
A reasonable option for those needing a
Given that this vehicle has covered significantly more miles than the model average, the service history is the most critical document to review. Ensure that oil changes and filter replacements have been carried out at the correct intervals for the 1995cc diesel engine to avoid long-term reliability issues.
Negotiate based on the mileage and the fact that it has already required brake pad and tyre replacements within the last two years. Check for evidence of these repairs in the invoices to ensure the April 2025 MOT failures were rectified with quality parts.
As a Euro 6 diesel, this van is compliant with most UK Clean Air Zones, reducing potential daily charges in city centres. Fuel economy will be typical for a 2.0L Transit, though actual costs will depend on load and driving style.
Expect moderate annual costs for insurance and tax, typical for a 300Leader variant. Maintenance costs will likely increase as the vehicle moves further beyond its initial warranty period, particularly for tyres and braking components.
Focus your inspection on the consumables that caused the April 2025 MOT failure. Specifically, check the current depth and condition of the tyres, particularly the nearside rear, which was previously flagged as damaged or perishing. Check the efficiency of the windscreen wipers, as these are a common failure point across 23,682 analysed vehicles of this model.
Inspect the brake pads to ensure they are not wearing thin again, following the 2025 failure. Finally, verify that the registration plate lamp is fully operational, as this was another specific point of failure for this registration (EC53AJC).
This 2022 white Ford Transit Custom 300Leader EBlue has recorded 63,476 miles as of November 2025. Its MOT history includes one failure in April 2025 due to consumable items, followed by a clean pass in November 2025. While the mileage is high for its age, the vehicle aligns with the general reliability patterns of the wider Transit Custom fleet.
The Transit Custom has an average MOT pass rate of 80.2%, with the most frequent failures relating to headlamps, tyres, and windscreen wipers.
