2022 Ford Transit Custom 300LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · LC22 GKO

A relatively clean roadworthiness profile defines this vehicle, with its most recent MOT pass on 21 April 2026 showing no recorded defects. The testing history indicates a stable trend, moving from a period of tyre-related advisories in April 2025 to a completely clear inspection in the latest test. While the absence of structural or mechanical failures is notable, the previous year's record highlighted specific concerns regarding tyre integrity, specifically an offside rear nail and cracking or perishing on the nearside front tyre. The recorded mileage of 22,893 miles over approximately four years represents a low annual accumulation of roughly 5,723 miles. This usage pattern suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to the high-intensity, high-mileage cycles typical of many commercial Ford Transit Custom models. Mechanically, this lower mileage generally implies less cumulative wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems; however, it can also mean the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary, which can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components such as tyres and seals. Given the specific advisories noted in the 2025 inspection, a prospective buyer should pay close attention to the condition of all four tyres. Although the 2026 test showed no defects, the previous report of cracking or perishing on the nearside front tyre suggests a potential for age-related rubber degradation. During a test drive, listen for any rhythmic thumping or uneven road noise that could indicate irregular tyre wear or internal structural damage, and visually inspect the sidewalls for any further signs of perishing, bulging, or deep cuts that might have been missed or have since developed. Beyond the tyres, the low annual mileage warrants a close inspection of the vehicle's fluid levels and the condition of rubber hoses and belts to ensure that long periods of inactivity have not caused any drying or cracking. While no specific leaks were flagged in the MOT history, the transition from a low-use pattern to active driving can sometimes reveal minor oil misting or coolant seepage. Check for any signs of dampness around the engine bay and ensure the braking performance is consistent, with no pedal sponginess or pulling to one side, to confirm that the previous tyre-related issues have not been accompanied by any underlying brake component wear.
