2019 Ford Transit Custom 2.0L Diesel · YT19 ADJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than preventative care. The most recent test on 24 June 2025 at 75,062 miles resulted in a pass only after an immediate failure due to front brake pads measuring at 1.1mm. This indicates that the previous owner only addressed critical components once they reached the point of failure rather than following a standard service interval for consumable wear items. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a seven-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging approximately 10,700 miles per year. Between the June 2022 test at 30,892 miles and the June 2025 test at 75,062 miles, the van covered over 44,000 miles, suggesting a steady usage pattern. The gap of 23,353 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests shows the vehicle remained in active use without long periods of standing. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking system, given the recurring issues with thin pads noted in both 2022 and 2025. The tester flagged thin pads on both axles in 2022, which may suggest sticking calipers or simply a disregard for the brake service schedule. Furthermore, the 2023 advisory at 42,560 miles regarding uneven nearside rear tyre wear and multiple nails points to a lack of attention to basic vehicle maintenance. Check the suspension bushes and bushings for wear, as these frequently degrade alongside uneven tyre patterns.
