2023 Ford Transit Custom 300LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · HT72 RXD

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 30 January 2026, confirming it met the required roadworthiness standards at 26,024 miles. While the record indicates an initial failure on the same date, the lack of recorded defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative oversight rather than a mechanical failure. The current status is stable, with no outstanding advisories or recurring technical faults to suggest underlying neglect or systemic degradation of the chassis or powertrain. The recorded mileage of 26,024 miles over a three-year period aligns with typical usage expectations for a commercial vehicle of this type, averaging approximately 8,675 miles per annum. This consistent, moderate accumulation of mileage indicates the van has likely seen regular, light-duty operation rather than long periods of inactivity or extreme high-mileage fleet use. The lack of historical MOT data prior to the 2026 test is expected given the vehicle's age, as it only recently reached the threshold for its first statutory inspection. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the common wear items associated with the Transit Custom platform, specifically the front suspension bushes, ball joints, and the condition of the brake discs. Although the MOT record is clean, check the underside for signs of impact damage or premature corrosion on the exhaust system, which can occur if the vehicle has been used for heavy-duty hauling. Verify that the service history supports the mileage, ensuring that the engine oil and filters have been replaced according to the manufacturer's schedule to maintain the longevity of the drivetrain.
