2019 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · FF58 ART

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 19 January 2026 with no defects recorded. Looking at the historical data, the maintenance trend appears stable and well-managed. While there were advisories regarding the front brake discs and pads in December 2024, the subsequent clean pass suggests these components were replaced or refurbished. The minor windscreen damage noted in 2022 was a superficial issue that did not impact the overall roadworthiness of the vehicle. With a recorded mileage of 108,902 miles over approximately seven years, this vehicle has averaged around 15,557 miles per annum. This is considered high usage for its age, which is typical for a commercial vehicle but implies accelerated wear on critical drivetrain and chassis components. Prospective buyers should be aware that high-mileage vehicles are more prone to fatigue in the suspension system and a faster depletion of consumable items compared to lower-mileage examples. Given the mileage, a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and steering geometry is essential. You should listen for clunks or knocks over uneven surfaces, which may indicate worn suspension bushes or failing coil springs. Pay close attention to the tyre wear patterns; uneven wear across the tread can signal alignment issues or worn steering rack components. Additionally, while the brakes are currently compliant, check for any pedal shudder or noise during deceleration to ensure the previous replacements were of a suitable quality. Finally, verify the comprehensive service history to ensure that calendar-based and mileage-based maintenance has been strictly adhered to. At this mileage, the condition of the clutch and the smoothness of gear transitions are critical indicators of the vehicle's remaining drivetrain life. Inspect the engine bay for signs of oil seepage and check the condition of the coolant to ensure no degradation has occurred. A review of the service book stamps will confirm if the vehicle has been maintained to a professional standard despite its high operational demand.
