Our Verdict
A solid consideration for those needing
When inspecting this specific grey Transit Custom, prioritise checking the condition of all tyres. The most recent MOT in October 2025 flagged a nearside rear tyre for cracking or perishing, which suggests you should inspect the sidewalls of the remaining tyres for similar age-related degradation.
Request evidence of regular servicing to complement the MOT records. While the MOT history is relatively sparse due to the vehicle's age, ensuring the 2.0L diesel engine has been maintained according to Ford's schedule is vital for long-term reliability. Check for any signs of uneven tyre wear which could indicate alignment issues.
As a 2.0L diesel, fuel economy will depend heavily on load and driving style, but it is generally efficient for a commercial vehicle of this size. Being a 2021 Euro 6 model, it avoids many daily charges in ULEZ or CAZ zones, which is a significant cost benefit.
Insurance groups for Transit Customs vary based on driver profile, but you should obtain a specific quote for this registration. Maintenance costs for this model are typically moderate, though tyre replacement is a confirmed recurring cost based on the recent MOT advisory. Expect an estimated annual running cost of £1,400-£1,800 depending on usage.
Focus your inspection on the tyres and wheels. The 2025 MOT record specifically noted a nearside rear tyre with cracking or perishing, so check the tread depth and structural integrity of all four tyres.
Additionally, given that windscreen wipers and headlamps are top failure reasons for this model aggregate, test the wiper blades for streaking and ensure all lighting elements, including indicators and brake lights, are fully functional. Check the underside for any signs of excessive corrosion, though none were noted in the recent MOT history.
This 2021 Ford Transit Custom 300LTD EBlue presents with 42,148 miles on the clock, which is notably lower than the model average of 13,119 miles per year. The MOT history shows two recorded tests, with a clean pass in 2024 and a pass in 2025 that included a single advisory regarding a nearside rear tyre. Given its Euro 6 status, it remains compliant with most UK low-emission zones.
The Ford Transit Custom shows an 82.7% average MOT pass rate across 52,469 analysed vehicles, with common failures relating to wipers, tyres, and headlamps.
