2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · LB18 JGV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent inspection. Although an initial failure was recorded on December 8, 2025 at 127,375 miles, the immediate re-test pass without recorded defects suggests a minor issue that was quickly rectified by the owner. The lack of recurring advisories or failures across the previous three tests indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a functional standard despite the high annual mileage. The mileage profile reflects a heavy-duty usage pattern, averaging approximately 16,000 miles per year over its eight-year life. Between September 27, 2023, and December 2, 2024, the vehicle covered 6,985 miles in just over fourteen months, showing consistent and significant deployment. The jump from 113,276 miles in December 2023 to 127,375 miles in December 2025 confirms the vehicle remains in active service, which typically places considerable stress on the drivetrain and suspension components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas most susceptible to high-mileage wear. Given the age of the Ford Transit Custom, a close examination of the structural integrity around the wheel arches and door sills is necessary to rule out accelerated corrosion. The inspector should also check for signs of worn suspension bushes, coil springs, and dampers, as these often degrade rapidly at this mileage interval. While the MOT history is clean, the high usage suggests that the brake discs and pads should be measured for thickness to ensure they are not nearing the end of their operational life.
