2018 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · EU18 GPZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on June 4, 2025 at 15,949 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. While the record shows a failure on that same date, the lack of listed defects suggests either an administrative error or a minor re-test requirement that was immediately rectified, as the subsequent pass confirmed the vehicle met all standards. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old Transit, averaging approximately 2,000 miles per annum. Between June 2022 at 6,583 miles and June 2025 at 15,949 miles, the vehicle covered only 9,366 miles over three years. This low usage suggests the van was used for short trips rather than heavy commercial hauling. However, such low mileage often indicates the vehicle has sat stationary for extended periods, which can lead to specific mechanical issues like degradation of rubber components and fluids that do not appear on high-mileage records. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components typically affected by low-mileage stationary vehicles. Check the tyres for flat spotting or sidewall cracking due to age rather than tread wear, and inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting from infrequent use. Given the age, examine suspension bushes and rubber boots for signs of dry rot. Since the MOT history does not flag structural rust or mechanical failures, the vehicle appears to have been well-maintained despite its limited usage profile.
