2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · LM18 LJZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT test on 24 June 2025 at 93,509 miles with no defects recorded. This success followed a failure just one day prior at 93,439 miles, which likely indicates a minor administrative issue or a trivial component that was rectified immediately. The lack of recorded advisories across the last three passing tests suggests that the mechanical and structural components have been maintained to a high standard. At 93,509 miles over eight years, the Transit averages approximately 11,700 miles per annum. This aligns with typical usage patterns for a commercial vehicle of this age. The data shows a consistent interval of 11,035 miles between April 2023 and April 2024, followed by a 24,317-mile surge in the year leading up to the June 2025 test. This recent increase in mileage indicates a period of heavy use, which is generally beneficial for keeping engine seals and exhaust components lubric after long periods of inactivity. While the digital record is clean, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of common Ford Transit wear points. Given the recent high-mileage period, the suspension arm bushes and coil springs require close scrutiny for tearing, as these often degrade under heavy loads. The buyer should also inspect the brake discs for uneven thinning or binding calipers, as the MOT does not measure pad thickness beyond the legal minimum. Checking the chassis for corrosion around mounting points is essential to ensure the structural integrity remains uncompromised despite the clean test history.
