2021 Ford Transit Custom 300LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · HS21 YGV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend indicates a recent shift toward reactive consumable management. While the most recent test on 30 May 2026 at 71,496 miles passed, it introduced advisories for a nearside front tyre being worn to the legal limit and possessing a cut. This follows a failure during the 27 June 2024 test at 54,284 miles due to an offside front nail and a deep cut on the offside rear reaching the cords. The transition from a clean sheet in 2025 to multiple tyre-related issues suggests that the owner is now only addressing maintenance items as they迫 failure thresholds. The mileage pattern reflects consistent high-intensity usage, averaging approximately 14,300 miles per year over the five-year period. The vehicle covered 13,000 miles between the June 2024 and June 2025 tests, and another 17,212 miles in the final year. This steady accumulation suggests a heavy commercial duty cycle typical of a Ford Transit. The high level of mileage means the vehicle has likely experienced significant stress on its drivetrain, suspension, and braking components, which necessitates a thorough check beyond the MOT records. A buyer must conduct a detailed physical inspection of the suspension geometry and bushes, as the high mileage and uneven tyre wear often indicate alignment issues or worn shock absorbers. The recorded wear on the nearside front tyre specifically warrants a check for tracking arm ball joints or steering component play. Given the history of tyre damage, the brakes should be tested for binding calipers or uneven disc thickness to ensure the high-mileage has not compromised the stopping system. Furthermore, the chassis should be inspected for structural corrosion to ensure that the heavy use has not led to premature metal fatigue in the mounting points or subframes.
