2021 Ford Transit Custom 280LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · FX21 LHU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in April 2026 with 104,780 miles and no recorded defects. The maintenance trend appears stable following a minor failure in early 2025 which was rectified immediately. The transition from a failure to a clean pass within one day indicates that the current owner is responsive to safety-critical requirements once they are identified by the tester. The mileage profile is high for a five-year-old van, averaging approximately 21,000 miles per year. Between the 2024 test at 66,218 miles and the 2025 test at 86,643 miles, the vehicle covered over 20,000 miles in just twelve months. This rapid accumulation suggests heavy commercial use or motorway mileage, which typically places accelerated stress on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems. The consistent annual testing intervals indicate regular operational use rather than periods of neglect. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension and steering geometry, given the high-mileage wear. The March 2025 failure for a nearside front tyre worn on the edge suggests potential alignment issues or shock absorber wear that may manifest again as the mileage climbs beyond 100,000 miles. You should also inspect the brake discs for thinning and check the calipers for seizing, as high-duty cycles often push these components toward the end of their service life faster than in passenger vehicles.
