2022 Ford Transit Custom 300LIMITD Eblue 2.0L Diesel · YP22 VCC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a concerning trend regarding tyre management. While the most recent test on 26 January 2026 at 116,464 miles passed, it flagged an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit and unevenly. This mirrors the advisory from the April 2025 test at 95,099 miles, where both nearside and offside front tyres were noted similarly. The recurring nature of these faults suggests the owner is delaying routine consumable replacements until they approach legal failure points. The mileage profile is exceptionally high for a four-year-old vehicle, averaging over 29,000 miles per annum. Between the April 2025 and January 2026 tests, the vehicle covered 21,365 miles in just nine months, representing a heavy usage pattern that far exceeds standard expectations. This rapid accumulation of mileage suggests constant commercial or long-distance motorway use, which accelerates the wear on drivetrain components, suspension bushings, and braking systems compared to a lower-mileage Ford Transit. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension and steering geometry. The repeated edge wear on the front tyres strongly points to an alignment issue, worn ball joints, or failing tie rod ends. Given the high mileage, the inspection should also include the brake discs for thinning or heavy scoring and the turbocharger assembly for signs of premature wear. The structural integrity of the chassis should be checked for rust to ensure the high-intensity use cycle has not led to accelerated corrosion or stress fractures in the mounting points.
