2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · YP68 ABO

The 2.0-litre diesel engine is designed for efficiency, offering a good balance of power and fuel economy for a van of this size. Tax bands for this vehicle are generally predictable, though it is worth checking the current VED rates for commercial vehicles based on its registration date.

Insurance costs will vary depending on your usage, but as a standard Transit Custom, parts availability is excellent, which helps keep maintenance costs competitive. You should budget for regular servicing every 10,000 to 12,000 miles to keep the engine in peak condition.

While the MOT history is perfect, always perform a physical inspection of the tyres and brakes, as these items are subject to wear between tests. Check the sliding doors and rear barn doors for smooth operation, as the hinges and latches can experience heavy use in commercial environments.

Look for any signs of rust around the wheel arches and the bottom of the doors, which are common areas to watch on older Transits. Ensure all electrical features, such as the infotainment system and air conditioning, are functioning correctly, as these are often overlooked during a standard MOT check.
