2018 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · YF18 FRP

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on March 2, 2026, at 38,751 miles which returned zero recorded defects. The maintenance trend remains exceptionally stable over the last five years, with the vehicle consistently meeting all regulatory requirements without mechanical or structural failures. This consistency suggests a history of diligent care and preventative maintenance. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old Ford Transit, averaging approximately 4,844 miles per year. Data shows a significant jump in usage between the February 2025 test at 8,762 miles and the March 2026 test at 38,751 miles, representing an accumulation of 30,000 miles in just one year. Prior to this period, the vehicle was used infrequently, often covering less than 2,000 miles annually, as seen between the 2022 and 2024 records. While the MOT history is clean of faults, a buyer must physically inspect for components affected by low-mileage operation and age. Vehicles that sit for long periods often suffer from dry rot in tyre sidewalls, perished rubber bushings, and seized brake calipers due to lack of movement. The recent surge in mileage also places sudden demand on the clutch and suspension components, which require a thorough check for premature wear. Examining the chassis for any surface corrosion is also necessary, as low mileage does not prevent environmental degradation over eight years.
