2018 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · LG18 FMP

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with five consecutive MOT tests resulting in passes without a single defect or advisory recorded. This trend of clean certificates, including the most recent pass on 7 August 2025, indicates a stable mechanical state regarding the specific items inspected during the annual DVSA tests. The recorded mileage of 69,334 miles is typical for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,667 miles per year. This level of usage suggests a standard rate of wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushes, and braking systems, without the extreme wear associated with high-mileage commercial use or the potential degradation seen in vehicles that have remained stationary for extended periods. Given that the DVSA records show no history of failures or advisories, there are no specific recurring faults such as subframe corrosion, brake pipe degradation, or suspension linkage wear to target for prior repair. The absence of flagged items across multiple years indicates that the structural integrity and essential safety components have met the minimum legal requirements consistently. During a test drive, focus on validating this clean record by listening for any knocks or rattles over uneven surfaces, which would indicate wear in the suspension bushes or coil springs. Check for any steering pull or pedal judder during braking to ensure that the brake discs and calipers are operating smoothly, as these physical sensations provide a real-world complement to the objective pass results recorded in the MOT history.
