2020 Ford Transit Custom 300 Trend Eblue 2.0L Diesel · WP20 BGU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-06-27 at 22,680 miles, confirmed it met roadworthiness standards with no defects recorded. Subsequent tests from 2023-07-28 (15,413 miles) and 2024-07-24 (19,501 miles) also passed without issues, indicating a stable maintenance trend. The sole 2023-07-13 failure at 15,389 miles did not list any defects, suggesting a technical or procedural anomaly rather than a mechanical concern. Overall, the absence of recurring faults or advisories implies consistent upkeep, though the gap between the last test and today’s date (2026-07-18) exceeds the required annual MOT interval. The vehicle’s mileage of 22,680 miles over six years equates to approximately 3,780 miles annually, significantly below the UK average for its age. This low usage could indicate infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers through lack of use. The MOT record shows gradual mileage increases, with a 4,088-mile jump between the 2023-07-28 and 2024-07-24 tests, followed by a 3,188-mile rise to the 2025-06-27 test. These increments align with the low annual average but do not reveal rapid wear or structural stress. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of inactivity-related degradation, such as corrosion in the underbody, hardened suspension components, or brake disc warping from limited use. The absence of prior advisories on tyres, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity is reassuring, but the low mileage may mask wear on consumables like brake pads or clutch components. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension system, brake calipers, and exhaust for rust or binding, alongside checking fluid levels and battery condition, which can deteriorate during prolonged storage.
