2021 Ford Transit Custom 300LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · HT21 DXE

The vehicle currently holds a PASSED status for the most recent MOT test on 2026-02-19, but this record is predicated on a failure in the September 2023 test at 52,000 miles, indicating that maintenance practices have not been consistent over the past three years. The current MOT result is not a permanent record of the vehicle's condition but rather a snapshot of the immediate test day, which must be interpreted against the broader history of the test. The mileage data suggests a pattern of rapid accumulation without adequate maintenance intervals, with the most recent test occurring at 43,685 miles in late 2026. This aligns with the vehicle's age of approximately five years, but the gap between the 2023 test and the current date reveals a lack of proactive upkeep. The rapid mileage accumulation suggests that the owner may have maintained the vehicle with less frequency, leading to accelerated wear on components such as the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain, which are critical for safety. Given the specific faults recorded in the September 2023 test, the vehicle presents a significant risk of structural integrity issues. The failure in the September 2023 test indicates that the suspension system, particularly the offside shock absorbers, may have become loose or misaligned, creating a high probability of future failures. The current MOT record confirms that these components are still failing, with the offside front shock absorbers showing light misting of oil and the offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit. A buyer must inspect the vehicle in person to verify the condition of these critical components and assess the likelihood of a complete failure before proceeding with purchase.
