Preparation That Goes Beyond Perfection:
Our preparation process goes far beyond industry norms – What follows outlines the intensive inspection, detailing, and restoration work carried out as part of the Automotive Addiction preparation standard.
This Ford Transit Custom MS-RT is new into stock and has entered our innovative, industry-leading preparation process, which involves up to 100-hours of labour-intensive work when completed, designed to satisfy even the most pedantic automotive enthusiast. At every stage, our exacting standards must be met before this Transit Custom MSRT Auto is released following preparation by Automotive Addiction.
The first phase of this process is our crucial pre-sale inspections, a comprehensive five-part assessment. This includes a deep-dive diagnostic inspection to verify mileage authenticity, and identify any stored fault codes. This is followed by a 260-point mechanical inspection and road test to ensure that what lies beneath the paintwork meets the highest standards of mechanical integrity.
An in-depth 150-point visual inspection of all exterior and interior surfaces is then carried out, including bodywork, paintwork, wheels, glass, and interior materials. We also complete a rigorous paint depth analysis, allowing us to verify the originality of the paintwork and body panels. Finally, a service and maintenance inspection is conducted to determine whether any time or mileage-sensitive servicing, maintenance, or manufacturer recall items require attention before progressing to our professional pre-sale detailing work.
This Ford Transit Custom MS-RT has successfully passed all pre-sale inspections, enabling us to confidently offer this example for sale today, and is now progressing through the remaining stages of preparation prior to delivery.
Prior to delivery, up to 60-hours of meticulous detailing preparation will be completed by our highly skilled, in-house professional detailers, each with over 10 years of experience. This £1,500 worth of work is carried out free of charge and will include a deep wheels-off decontamination cleanse, pre-paint correction preparation, brake disc centre refurbishment, exhaust system polishing, steam cleaning of intricate areas, and underbody and wheel arch rejuvenation. This will be followed by our signature multi-stage machine paint correction. Interior surfaces will be restored with equal precision, ensuring this Ford Transit Custom MS-RT is presented in the most optimal condition possible, regardless of age or mileage.
The objective is to achieve a finish that often surpasses factory standards when new — because we believe a vehicle should look as exceptional as it feels to drive.
This unique, industry-leading preparation process will be documented through both images and video. Imagery and video content will be added to the gallery for this advert as preparation progresses, with additional documentation available to prospective buyers upon request.
Automotive Addiction has grown from an unrivalled passion for perfection in vehicle preparation and performance.

A Motorsport-Inspired Interpretation of Ford’s Most Versatile Commercial Vehicle. Finished in Agate Grey with a bespoke Black Nappa Leather and Suede interior, this 2023 Ford Transit Custom MS-RT combines distinctive widebody styling, specialist MS-RT enhancements and an extensive factory specification with the practicality of a long-wheelbase panel van. Having covered just 22,100 miles, with two owners from new and a comprehensive Ford Main Dealer service history, this example offers an appealing combination of individuality, comfort and everyday usability.
Developed by MS-RT, the motorsport-inspired conversion transforms the appearance of the Transit Custom Limited upon which it is based. The bespoke exterior package incorporates an aggressively styled front bumper with integrated air intakes, a redesigned front grille and lower splitter, extended wheel arches, sculpted side skirts, a rear bumper with integrated sports diffuser and a roof-mounted rear spoiler. These enhancements create a considerably more purposeful appearance than the conventional Transit Custom, while retaining its original commercial vehicle functionality.
Complementing the Agate Grey paintwork are the original 18-inch MS-RT OZ Racing alloy wheels finished in Anthracite, together with an MS-RT stainless-steel sports exhaust featuring twin rear outlets. The combination of bespoke bodywork, motorsport-inspired detailing and specialist components distinguishes the MS-RT from Ford’s conventional Transit Custom range, offering a distinctive alternative to a standard panel van.
The cabin receives equally extensive attention, featuring bespoke Black Nappa Leather and Suede upholstery, an MS-RT sports steering wheel with carbon-fibre inlays, MS-RT floor mats and an individual identification plaque marked M3172. The three-seat front cabin combines the additional character of the MS-RT conversion with practical everyday features, including heated outer front seats, an adjustable driver’s seat and a double passenger bench incorporating useful storage and a fold-out table.
Factory equipment includes Ford SYNC 3 with an 8-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, DAB digital radio and Bluetooth connectivity. Further conveniences include front and rear parking sensors, a reversing camera, cruise control, Quickclear heated windscreen, electrically folding and heated exterior mirrors and a 230V front power outlet. Particularly useful for a panel van with an enclosed rear load compartment is the camera-based digital rear-view mirror, providing a live rearward view independently of the solid bulkhead.
Powered by Ford’s 2.0-litre EcoBlue turbocharged diesel engine producing 170PS, this Transit Custom features the six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission and front-wheel drive.
Importantly, the MS-RT conversion does not compromise the underlying versatility of the Transit Custom. Its L2 H1 long-wheelbase, low-roof configuration offers a standard load volume of 6.8m³, with a load length of up to 2,921mm behind the bulkhead and an extended load-through facility for longer items. Dual sliding side loading doors provide convenient access from either side of the vehicle, while twin rear cargo doors, load compartment protection and integrated securing points retain the practicality expected of a commercial panel van.
The vehicle is accompanied by a comprehensive Ford Main Dealer maintenance history, beginning with its pre-delivery inspection in June 2023, followed by a Ford Main Dealer interim check in November 2024 at 13,604 miles and a further Ford Main Dealer service in May 2026 at 21,898 miles. This documented maintenance history provides valuable reassurance alongside the vehicle’s modest mileage and specialist specification.
Just Arrived at Automotive Addiction, this Transit Custom MS-RT is awaiting our comprehensive in-house preparation process, which includes a 260-point mechanical inspection, 150-point visual inspection and professional detailing. These stages will be completed prior to sale, ensuring the vehicle is presented in accordance with our specialist preparation standards.
Combining the distinctive appearance of an MS-RT conversion, the comfort and convenience of a well-equipped Transit Custom Limited and the versatility of a long-wheelbase panel van, this Agate Grey example represents an appealing opportunity for an owner seeking a commercial vehicle with considerably more character than the conventional alternatives.
