2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · FJ68 NHY

The vehicle presents a current roadworthy status based on the most recent pass recorded on 27 November 2023 at 107,664 miles, with no defects listed. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, as every test from 26 November 2021 through to the late 2023 pass shows clean results with no advisories or faults raised. The duplicate 27 November 2023 entry showing a fail with no defects recorded is an administrative anomaly in the DVLA data rather than a mechanical concern, and the subsequent pass on the same day confirms the Transit Custom was cleared for road use. Mileage accumulation sits high for an eight year old van. The record shows 81,989 miles at the 26 November 2021 test, rising to 95,704 miles by 4 November 2022 and 107,664 miles by 27 November 2023. That equates to roughly 13,500 miles per year, with near identical annual increments of about 13,700 and 11,900 miles across the two measured periods. No gaps exist between tests, yet the sparse four entry history offers limited visibility of consumable condition between 2021 and 2023. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high annual mileage and commercial duty cycle of a Transit Custom. The MOT record flags no corrosion, structural defects, or binding calipers, but the absence of advisories across three years suggests the tester logged only hard failures rather than wear trends. Given the 2023 pass is now over two and a half years old relative to today's date of 8 July 2026, the next test is overdue and any used purchase must be contingent on a fresh MOT and a independent mechanical check of drivetrain and exhaust emissions before funds transfer.
