2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · LF68 RLY

The 2018 Ford Transit Custom presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 5 November 2024 at 56,023 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior pass on 25 July 2024 at 53,054 miles also showed a clean sheet. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the available record, indicating the vehicle has not entered a worsening or deteriorating condition. Recorded mileage sits at 56,023 against an eight-year lifespan, equating to roughly 7,000 miles per year and reflecting typical light commercial use. The jump from 41,705 miles at the 8 September 2022 test to 43,124 miles by 27 July 2023 shows low annual accumulation, then a larger rise to 53,054 by July 2024. The history is sparse but clean, with only a failed entry on 27 July 2023 at 43,124 miles that was immediately re-tested the same day and passed with no defects logged, suggesting an administrative or minor non-mechanical rejection rather than a substantive fault. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and commercial duty cycle of the Transit chassis. The DVSA record flags no corrosion, exhaust emissions breaches, or structural integrity concerns, yet standing periods implied by low mileage can conceal perished rubber components or binding calipers not captured in a pass result. Given the absence of recurring advisories, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic upkeep to test standard. Verify service history and check for undertray rust or damp wiring harnesses, as the MOT data alone does not expose wear outside the test scope.
