Our Verdict
A capable silver Transit Custom with a r
Prioritise reviewing the service history to ensure the gearbox mounting replacement noted in the 2024 MOT was carried out professionally. Given the higher-than-average mileage, check for wear on common Transit Custom failure points like brake pads and tyres, as these are frequent issues across the wider model population.
Ensure all electrical components, particularly the rear lighting, are functioning correctly to avoid a repeat of the 2024 failure. Negotiate based on the higher mileage relative to the model average of 13,188 miles per year.
As a 2.0L diesel, fuel economy will be typical for the Transit Custom range, though costs will be higher due to the vehicle's high annual usage. Insurance groups for the Limited trim are generally mid-range for vans, and tax will fall into the standard diesel category for 2021 registrations.
Maintenance costs for this model often involve the replacement of brake pads and tyres. Given the current mileage of nearly 90,000, the buyer should budget for upcoming major service intervals.
Focus on the gearbox and transmission area to ensure the previously noted mounting failure has been fully resolved and that there are no unusual vibrations. Inspect the headlamps and brake pads, which are identified as top failure reasons across 48,190 analysed vehicles of this model.
Check the condition of the registration plates and rear lamps to ensure they meet current MOT standards, as these were specific points of failure in October 2024. A general inspection of the tyres is also recommended based on aggregate model data.
This 2021 silver diesel model has covered 89,919 miles, which exceeds the model average. While the October 2025 MOT was a clean pass, the 2024 record shows a failure involving a defective gearbox mounting and lighting issues. It represents a typical high-use commercial vehicle of this specification.
The Transit Custom has an average MOT pass rate of 82.2%, with common failures typically relating to headlamps, brake pads, and tyres.
