2018 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · YP68 GDZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted on October 10, 2025, at 170,835 miles passed with no recorded defects or advisories. This follows a clean result from October 2024, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have met the minimum safety standards recently despite the high-mileage profile. The mileage accumulation is significantly high for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 21,354 miles per year. Between October 2022 and October 2023, the van covered 28,368 miles in a single twelve-month period, followed by another 23,741 miles in the following year. This consistent high-intensity usage suggests a long-distance commercial application, which typically places heavy stress on the drivetrain and suspension, though the regular testing history shows this has not yet resulted in major mechanical failure recorded in the ledger. A physical inspection should focus on the braking system and suspension components given the high-mileage. The October 2023 test at 122,883 miles identified worn front enough discs, and while it passed since, the buyer should check the current thickness and signs of pitting. Furthermore, the failure in October 2022 due to tyre tread depth and edge wear highlights a history of neglected consumable maintenance. A thorough check of the suspension bushes, shock absorbers, and bushings is essential, as these components often reach the end of life on vehicles exceeding 170,000 miles.
