2021 Ford Transit Custom 300LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · MW21 VRV

The vehicle currently holds a clean MOT status following its most recent test on 29 May 2026 at 106,110 miles. The maintenance trend shows signs of recent improvement, as the tester recorded no defects during this latest inspection. This follows a period of instability in mid-2025 when the vehicle failed its test on 27 May 2025 due to a combination of a defective windscreen, a non-functional offside dipped beam headlamp, and severely deteriorated nearside and offside front outer drive shaft constant velocity boots. The mileage accumulation indicates heavy commercial use, averaging approximately 21,222 miles per year over the five-year period. The data shows a significant increase of 17,796 miles between the May 2024 test at 68,503 miles and the June 2025 test at 86,299 miles. A further 19,811 miles were covered between June 2025 and the May 2026 test. This consistent, high-mileage pattern suggests the vehicle has been used extensively for transit duties, which typically accelerates the wear on drivetrain and suspension components. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front drive shafts and CV boots. While the May 2026 test reported no defects, the severe deterioration noted in both the May and June 2025 records suggests these components are prone to failure on this vehicle. The inspector should check for any signs of grease leakage or clicking noises from the front axle during low-speed turns, which would indicate that the previously flagged CV boots or joints are failing again. Given the high annual mileage, attention should also be directed toward the suspension system and braking components. Although no specific advisories regarding corrosion or brake binding appeared in the recent records, the heavy usage profile warrants a close look at the condition of the shock absorbers, bushes, and brake discs. The recent pass suggests the previous mechanical failures were addressed, but the high mileage means consumables will likely require more frequent replacement than a typical light-duty vehicle.
