2021 Ford Transit Custom 260LEADER Eblue 2.0L Diesel · LV71 EOJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on two clean passes across the most recent inspections. The latest MOT conducted on 01 September 2025 at 75,662 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories. This indicates a consistent maintenance standard, suggesting that the previous owners have addressed potential mechanical or safety issues before they could trigger a failure during the DVSA testing process. The vehicle has covered 75,662 miles over approximately five years, averaging roughly 15,000 miles per annum. Between the September 2024 test at 59,522 miles and the September 2025 test, the vehicle clocked 16,140 miles in a single year. This high-mileage pattern is consistent with heavy commercial use typical of a Ford Transit Custom. While high mileage places greater strain on wear-related components, the lack of advisories suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained thus far. A physical inspection should focus on components subject to high-mileage stress cycles cycles. The buyer must examine the front suspension for wear on the bushes, coil springs, and drop arms, which often degrade rapidly on loaded vans. Given the mileage, the braking system should be checked for thin-out discs and signs of binding in the calipers. Additionally, inspecting the chassis for early-stage corrosion or structural fatigue is essential, as the MOT record does not provide detail on the state of underbody unless a failure is imminent.
