2023 Ford Transit Custom 320leader Eblue
CarHunch is tracking 1,093 2023 Ford Transit Custom 320leader Eblue vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.
This 2023 Ford Transit Custom 320 Leader eBLUE has a first-time MOT pass rate of just 6.5%, which is catastrophically below the UK average of 80%—this is a critical red flag for reliability. Nearly all vehicles in this cohort are diesel (1,092 of 1,093), and the dangerous defect rate of 0.2% is mercifully low, but the overall picture suggests systemic issues with this model that go far beyond normal teething problems.
At a median mileage of 37,270 miles for a 2023 model, these vans are relatively low-mileage, yet they're still failing MOT at an extraordinary rate with an average of 0.01 failures per vehicle—meaning almost every test uncovers something that needs fixing. Before committing to this van, insist on a pre-purchase inspection by a Ford specialist who can identify the pattern of defects these vehicles are experiencing; the first-time pass rate suggests you should budget for immediate remedial work.
We have 1,093 2023 Ford Transit Custom 320leader Eblue vehicles on record but don't have enough MOT test data to show reliable statistics for this cohort.
What to check before buying a 2023 Ford Transit Custom 320leader Eblue
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
