Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to significantl
Prioritise a thorough review of the service history to ensure that major components have been maintained in line with the high 115,845-mile odometer reading. Verify that the brake pads and tyres were replaced following the MOT failures in June 2025 and July 2026.
Given that the mileage is well above the model average of 13,191 miles per year, use this as a primary point for price negotiation. Ensure all invoices for recent repairs are present to confirm the vehicle was brought up to a roadworthy standard after its most recent failures.
As a 2.0L Euro 6 diesel, this vehicle is compliant with most UK clean air zones, but fuel costs will be a significant factor given its high-use history. Insurance and road tax will follow standard brackets for a Transit Custom of this specification.
Maintenance costs are expected to rise as the vehicle exceeds 115,000 miles, with a higher likelihood of suspension and drivetrain wear. Budget for more frequent tyre and brake replacements, as these have been recurring issues in the MOT history.
Carefully inspect the condition of the tyres and brake pads, as these caused failures in 2026 and 2025 respectively. Test all exterior lighting, specifically the dipped beams, which were noted as a failure point in July 2026.
Given the high mileage, perform a detailed check for oil leaks and assess the condition of the suspension components. These areas are critical for high-mileage commercial vehicles and complement the known failure patterns for this model.
This blue 2020 Ford Transit Custom 280 Limited has recorded 115,845 miles, which is substantially higher than the model's average annual mileage. The MOT history shows a pattern of failures in 2025 and 2026 related to brake pads, tyres, and lighting. It currently holds a valid MOT as of July 2026.
The Transit Custom has an average MOT pass rate of 82.3%, with brake pads, tyres, and headlamps being the most frequent causes of failure.
