2019 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · MX68 WVE

The most recent MOT record shows a passing result on 6 March 2026, following a failure ten days earlier. The vehicle failed the 26 February 2026 test due to exhaust emissions exceeding the manufacturer's specified limit. This failure indicates a recent mechanical issue with the combustion or exhaust system that required rectification to achieve the subsequent pass. The maintenance trend appears unstable due to this sudden failure after several years of passing tests. The vehicle has covered 41,884 miles over approximately seven years, averaging roughly 5,983 miles per year. This represents relatively low annual mileage for a Ford Transit Custom. The records show a significant gap in testing between 16 December 2022 and 6 January 2025. While the mileage accumulation is low, the lack of recent data between late 2022 and early 2025 means the vehicle's condition during that period remains unverified by official testing. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the underside of the vehicle. The 6 January 2025 advisory noted the vehicle was heavily soiled underneath, which can mask progressive corrosion. This follows a 8 January 2024 advisory regarding a brake pipe being corroded and covered in grease or other material. These entries suggest a pattern of debris or substance accumulation that may hide the true state of the brake lines and structural components. Further inspection of the exhaust system is necessary to ensure the emissions issue identified in February 2026 has been fully resolved. Given the previous advisory regarding brake pipe corrosion, checking the integrity of all fluid lines and the presence of any further oxidation on the chassis is a prudent step before purchase.
