2020 Ford Transit Custom 300LMTD Eblue A 2.0L Diesel · WA20 FFM

This 2020 Ford Transit Custom presents a highly stable and exemplary maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 2026-06-26 at 10,448 miles. The tester recorded zero defects or advisories in the most recent test, mirroring the three prior inspections. Such an unblemished record indicates a vehicle that has suffered no mechanical failures or structural degradation requiring immediate remedial action. The consistent absence of flagged components points to diligent preventative maintenance and careful usage by the previous keeper. The mileage pattern reveals exceptionally low usage for a six-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging just 1,741 miles annually. Between 2023-07-05 at 4,745 miles and 2024-07-02 at 7,728 miles, the van covered 2,983 miles, increasing to 2,411 miles by 2025-06-24 at 10,139 miles. A notable drop-off occurred over the final twelve months, with only 309 miles recorded between June 2025 and June 2026. Prolonged periods of standing can lead to specific issues not captured during an MOT, such as moisture absorption in brake fluid, flat-spotted tyres, or binding handbrake mechanisms. Despite the pristine MOT record, a physical inspection must focus on the inherent risks of a lightly used van sitting idle for extended durations. Examine the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion and binding, a common issue on vehicles covering minimal mileage. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for ozone cracking and check for flat-spots that might not trigger an MOT advisory but will compromise ride quality. Scrutinise the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, as lack of regular use can cause rubber to dry out. Assess the condition of the diesel particulate filter and EGR valve, as repeated short journeys or prolonged standing frequently cause exhaust emissions system blockages that only manifest under load.
