2019 Ford Transit Custom 340LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · SN69 KCK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 12 December 2025 at 154,528 miles. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive repairs rather than proactive upkeep, as the vehicle consistently fails its inspections just days before passing. While the most recent test recorded no defects, the recurring cycle of failing followed by an immediate pass suggests that the previous owner only addressed issues when forced by the tester rather than maintaining the vehicle between annual intervals. The mileage profile is high for a seven-year-old van, averaging over 22,000 miles per annum. Data from the records shows the vehicle covered nearly 30,000 miles in the single year between the October 2023 and October 2024 tests, and another 11,500 miles in the two months leading to the December 2025 test. This rapid accumulation indicates heavy commercial use or constant motorway mileage, which accelerates the wear rate on drivetrain components, suspension, and braking systems compared to average vehicles. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension components, specifically checking for perished bushes and worn coil springs, which fail frequently on high-mileage Transits. Given the history of failing tests immediately before passing, the braking system should be checked for binding calipers and thin discs. The structural integrity of the chassis and underbody also requires close examination for corrosion, as high-mileage commercial vehicles often operate in environments that accelerate hidden structural failure over time.
