2022 Ford Transit Custom 320LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · JS51 BMX

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the most recent MOT passed on 13 May 2026 showing no defects. While the vehicle failed a test on 12 May 2026 due to a major defect regarding the offside front windscreen wiper failing to clear the glass effectively, this was a singular, non-mechanical failure that was rectified immediately to secure the subsequent pass. The absence of any recorded advisories or structural defects across the available testing history suggests a stable mechanical profile regarding the components typically inspected during the MOT process. The recorded mileage of 42,399 miles over approximately four years indicates an average annual usage of roughly 10,600 miles. This accumulation rate is consistent with typical light-to-medium commercial use for a Ford Transit Custom of this age. Mechanically, this level of mileage suggests that while the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme high-frequency motorway running, it has been driven enough to avoid the potential issues associated with long periods of stationary use, such as seized components or fluid degradation. Given that the only recorded failure was related to the windscreen wiper assembly, a prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the visibility and wiper system to ensure the previous major defect has been fully resolved. During a test drive, check that the wiper blades operate smoothly across the entire windscreen without streaking, skipping, or juddering, and verify that the wiper motor does not produce excessive noise when activated. Ensure the washer fluid jets are correctly aimed and provide adequate coverage to prevent a recurrence of visibility issues. Beyond the wiper system, the lack of recorded advisories for suspension, braking, or exhaust components means there are no specific mechanical warnings to act upon. However, as is standard with vehicles in this mileage bracket, a thorough inspection of the consumables is advisable. Listen for any knocks or knocks from the suspension linkages or bushes when navigating uneven surfaces, and monitor the brake pedal for any sponginess or vibration that might indicate wear on the discs or calipers, even though no such issues were flagged in the official DVSA records.
