Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the vehicle
Prioritise the verification of recent repairs. Request detailed invoices for the replacement of the corroded brake pipes, the steering rack inner joint, and the track rod end to ensure these were handled by a professional garage. Given the 'oil level warning' recorded during the July 2026 MOT, you should check for active leaks or evidence of oil consumption.
Negotiate based on the high mileage and the fact that the inner rear suspension bushes are noted as deteriorating. Ensure that the windscreen damage mentioned in the MOT is acceptable to you or has been repaired, as this was a noted defect during the last inspection.
As a 1995cc diesel with Euro 6 Y status, this vehicle is compliant with most UK low-emission zones. However, fuel costs will be a significant factor given the engine size and the typical usage patterns of this model.
Maintenance costs are likely to rise as the vehicle exceeds 135,000 miles. The recent need for brake pipe and steering components suggests that the vehicle is entering a phase of more frequent mechanical intervention. Typical annual costs including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance are estimated to be relatively high for a commercial vehicle of this age.
Focus your inspection on the chassis and steering. The July 2026 MOT highlighted corroded brake pipes and play in the steering rack inner joint and track rod end; verify that these parts have been replaced rather than patched. Check the inner rear suspension bushes, which were specifically flagged as deteriorating.
Additionally, check the lighting systems and the windscreen. The vehicle failed on multiple lamps (fog, headlamp, registration, and reversing) and had windscreen damage in its last test. Ensure all electrical components are now functioning correctly and the glass is free of cracks that could lead to a future failure.
This white 2019 Ford Transit Custom has covered 135,569 miles, which is substantially higher than the model average. The MOT history shows a clean record between 2023 and 2025, but the July 2026 test required a wide range of repairs to steering, braking, and lighting systems to achieve a pass. The vehicle's high mileage is reflected in the recent emergence of several mechanical advisories and failures.
The Transit Custom has an average MOT pass rate of 83.3%, with common failures typically involving headlamps and braking systems.
