90% konfidenz
The vehicle's price is significantly below market value, which warrants thorough investigation. While service history is noted as true, a highly suspicious 'last inspection' date requires immediate clarification. The high mileage for its age and the potential mismatch with a pure commute use case also contribute to a 'consider' verdict, pending further checks.

Risikosignale
The 'last inspection' date is listed as 30.07.2028, which is in the future. This is highly unusual and likely a typo or misrepresentation (e.g., date of next inspection). This needs urgent clarification as it impacts the vehicle's roadworthiness status.
The listed price of 6,990 EUR is considerably below the typical market range for a 2017 Ford Transit Custom with similar mileage. While potentially a good deal, it could also indicate underlying issues, a very basic specification, or unreported damage.
With 158,055 km for a 2017 vehicle, the mileage is relatively high. While common for commercial vans, it suggests more wear and tear on components and potential for upcoming maintenance.
The specific trim level and number of previous owners are not provided. This information is crucial for accurate valuation and understanding the vehicle's history.
A Ford Transit Custom is a commercial van. While versatile, it might not be the most comfortable, fuel-efficient, or practical choice for a primary 'commute' vehicle compared to a passenger car, depending on the nature of the commute.

Bekannte Modellprobleme
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) issues: Especially in vehicles used for short commutes or stop-start city driving, DPFs can clog, leading to costly repairs. Given the mileage, this is a potential concern.
EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve problems: Carbon buildup can cause EGR valve malfunctions, affecting engine performance and emissions.
Clutch and gearbox wear: As a commercial vehicle with a manual gearbox and high mileage, the clutch and transmission components may show significant wear, potentially requiring replacement.
Rust: While a 2017 model, commercial vehicles can be prone to rust, especially on the underbody, wheel arches, and sills, due to heavy use and exposure.
Injector problems: Diesel injectors can wear out over time, leading to rough running, reduced fuel economy, and potentially expensive repairs.
Betriebskosten
- As a diesel commercial vehicle, expect potentially higher maintenance costs for components like the DPF, EGR valve, and injectors, especially with higher mileage.
- Fuel consumption for a van used for commuting might be higher than a smaller passenger car.
- Insurance costs for commercial vehicles can sometimes be higher, and German vehicle tax (KFZ-Steuer) for diesel engines can be significant depending on emissions.

- 8Inspect brake pads and discs for wear, and check brake fluid level.
- 9Examine tires for even wear, sufficient tread depth, and any damage.
- 10Perform a comprehensive test drive to assess steering, suspension, braking, engine performance under load, and listen for any unusual noises (e.g., from suspension, wheel bearings).
