2019 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · MP19 PRV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight regression toward electrical and consumable neglect. The most recent test in July 2025 at 92,687 miles passed with only a minor advisory for an inoperative nearside plate lamp. This follows a clean result in 2024, suggesting that while the vehicle is mechanically sound, the owner tends to overlook minor electrical bulb failures until they are flagged by the MOT tester. The mileage profile indicates a high-intensity usage pattern, averaging approximately 13,000 miles per year over its seven-year life. Between July 2022 and July 2023, the vehicle covered 15,985 miles, while the interval slowed slightly to 10,815 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests. This consistent accumulation is typical of a long-distance commercial vehicle, which places significant stress on the drivetrain, suspension bushings, and braking components compared to lower-mileage examples. A buyer must inspect the front suspension geometry and alignment, given the July 2023 failure for a nearside front tyre worn on the outer edge. This often indicates incorrect camber or worn ball joints and tie rods common on heavy-duty vans. The 2023 failure regarding an inoperative engine management indication lamp suggests that past faults may have gone undetected by the driver, so a full diagnostic scan is necessary to ensure no hidden fault codes remain in the engine system. Given the high mileage approaching 93,000 miles, a close inspection of exhaust corrosion and the condition of the brake discs is also warranted to rule out long-term wear.
