Our Verdict
This Ford Transit Custom presents a soli
When inspecting this vehicle, focus on the front braking system, as the March 2026 MOT highlighted that the pads are wearing thin. While this is a standard consumable item, ensure you account for the cost of replacement in your purchase negotiations if they have not been addressed since the last test.
Beyond the brakes, examine the bodywork and cargo area for signs of heavy commercial use. As a 'Leader' trim model, these are often used for trade work; check the rear load bay for damage to the floor or side panels, as this can indicate how hard the vehicle has been worked during its 63,185 miles on the road.
As a Euro 6 diesel, this Transit Custom is ULEZ compliant, which is a significant benefit for urban operation. Fuel economy will depend heavily on the load carried, but you should expect moderate running costs consistent with the 2.0-litre EcoBlue engine.
Beyond fuel, budget for annual VED (Vehicle Excise Duty) and standard commercial insurance premiums. Maintenance costs should be predictable, though routine servicing for the EcoBlue engine is essential to maintain longevity. Expect an estimated annual running cost in the range of £2,200–£2,800, depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
Prioritise a physical check of the front brake discs and pads to confirm the current state of the components flagged in the 2026 MOT. Additionally, check the operation of all exterior lighting, as headlamp issues are a common failure point for the Transit Custom model range according to aggregate data.
Inspect the windscreen for chips or cracks, and verify that the wipers clear the glass effectively. Given the model's history, also ensure that all tyres—including the spare—meet the legal tread depth requirements and show even wear patterns, as tyre issues are a frequent MOT failure point for this vehicle type.
Registered in October 2020, this white Transit Custom has covered 63,185 miles over three recorded MOT tests. The vehicle has maintained a perfect pass record since its first test, with the only recent note being a wear-related advisory on the front brake pads. It sits comfortably within the expected usage patterns for a vehicle of this classification.
The Transit Custom generally performs well in MOT testing, with an aggregate pass rate of 80.3% across the fleet, suggesting it is a robust platform when maintained.
