2022 Ford Transit Custom 320 Trail Eblue 2.0L Diesel · HG71 VDA

The July 21 2026 MOT at 51,046 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness and showing that the maintenance record has not exhibited a worsening trend. The prior July 2025 test at 47,934 miles listed rear shock oil misting, brake pedal wear and tyre wear, but the latest result shows none of these issues persisting. The vehicle, a 2022 model now four years old, has accumulated 51,046 miles, averaging 12,762 miles per year, a rate higher than typical for its age. Mileage gaps are evident: the August 20 2024 test at 41,163 miles captured both a pass and a subsequent fail on the same day, followed by a July 31 2025 test at 47,934 miles and the recent July 21 2026 test, indicating rapid mileage accumulation over the past two years. A buyer should therefore examine the near side rear shock absorbers for oil leakage and worn seals, verify that the rear brakes are not binding given the smooth pedal wear noted previously, and inspect tyre tread on the near side front and rear where wear approached the 3 mm limit. The insecure near side rear electrical wiring and the history of headlamp and fog lamp failures merit functional testing, while a visual check for structural rust and corrosion on the chassis and suspension bushes is advisable given the high annual mileage.
