2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · LD18 SYU

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection on 17 June 2025 at 62,226 miles recorded no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the previous owners have proactively managed the vehicle to prevent mechanical or structural failures from manifesting during the DVSA testing process. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for a commercial vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,700 miles per annum. Between June 2021 and June 2025, the vehicle covered 27,791 miles, showing steady usage rather than heavy industrial strain or neglect. The jump of 6,599 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests aligns with the annual average of previous years, suggesting a predictable operational cycle. This relatively low mileage means that the drivetrain components and suspension assembly have likely experienced less-related wear compared to high-mileage fleet counterparts. While the digital record shows no recurring mechanical faults or corrosion issues, a physical inspection should focus on components common to the Transit Custom that age regardless of mileage. A buyer should check for early-stage perished rubber in wish arm bushes and suspension mounts, as rubber can degrade over time even with low usage. Given the vehicle's age, verifying the condition of brake discs for pitting and checking the underside for minor fluid leaks remains prudent practice to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the current state of the machine.
