2020 Ford Transit Custom 300LMTD Eblue A 2.0L Diesel · GO20 CFC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy having passed its most recent MOT in May 2026 at 32,541 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a shift toward deferred consumable repairs, as the tester flagged thin front and rear brake pads during this latest inspection. This represents a departure from the clean record seen in 2025, indicating that while the vehicle remains mechanically compliant, the braking system now requires immediate attention to prevent further component degradation. At six years old, the vehicle sits at 32,541 miles, averaging approximately 5,400 miles per year. This low-usage profile is consistent across the timeline, but it explains the specific issues noted in the history. Between July 2023 and May 2024, the vehicle covered only 2,381 miles, yet the tester found perishing and cracking on both rear tyres. This pattern suggests the vehicle may sits stationary for long periods, leading to rubber rot and age-related tyre material failure rather than mileage-based wear. A buyer should inspect the tyres thoroughly for sidewall cracking and flat spotting, as the 2023 and 2024 advisories indicate a history of neglecting rubber components due to low use. The 2026 failure regarding thin brake pads necessitates a physical check of the discs for scoring or uneven wear caused by the lack of use. Given the uneven wear on the front tyres noted in 2023, the buyer should also verify the wheel alignment to ensure the low mileage has not resulted in premature scrubbing of the tread.
