2020 Ford Transit Custom 300TRND Eblue A 2.0L Diesel · KL02 LTL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive upkeep. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 52,636 miles passed, it revealed multiple immediate requirements that were not present in previous years. The appearance of pitted rear brake discs, a nearside front tyre reaching the legal limit, and a defective wiper blade indicates that components are only being addressed once they approach failure or are flagged by the MOT tester. The mileage pattern is consistent with a light to medium-use profile, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per year. There is a significant jump in usage between April 2025 at 40,127 miles and March 2026 at 52,636 miles, representing over 12,000 miles driven in just eleven months. This increase in activity likely explains the accelerated wear observed on the braking system, as the thin pads noted in 2025 have progressed into worn and pitted discs by in the 2026 inspection. A buyer must prioritise the braking system during a physical inspection. The record shows a progression from thin pads in 2025 to scored and pitted discs in 2026, suggesting the brakes may have been run until the metal damaged the hardware. You should also inspect the nearside front tyre for uneven wear patterns, as the 2026 advisory specifically noted wear on the edge. Given the history of cut sidewalls in 2023, a thorough check of the current rubber for structural damage is necessary to ensure no hidden fatigue has occurred during the higher mileage interval.
