2021 Ford Transit Custom 340 Trend Mhev 2.0L Electric diesel · MX71 VAV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent inspection conducted on 21 January 2026 at 82,238 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a clean pass in October 2024, indicating that the vehicle has consistently met minimum legal safety standards without recurring mechanical or structural failures during these intervals. The mileage pattern reflects high annual usage for a five-year-old van, averaging over 16,000 miles year. Between the October 2024 test at 54,313 miles and the January 2026 test, the vehicle covered 27,925 miles in just over fifteen months. This rapid accumulation suggests consistent heavy commercial use or long-distance motorway running, which typically accelerates the wear on suspension-related components and drivetrain assemblies compared to lower-mileage urban examples. While the MOT records show no current advisories, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of components prone to high-mileage wear. Focus attention on the suspension bushes, control arm ball, and coil springs for signs of fatigue or tearing, given the stress placed on these parts. The brake system should be checked for uneven disc wear or thin pads, as the high mileage puts significant demand on the braking hardware. Additionally, inspect the chassis for early-stage corrosion, particularly around the mounting points, to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite the heavy usage profile.
