1991 ISUZU TROOPER3.1L Diesel

The Isuzu Trooper presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 March 2026 at 118,724 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 1 April 2025 at 116,764 miles. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or mechanical faults across the available five-year MOT span, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards. Recorded mileage remains low for a 35-year-old vehicle. The odometer read 111,956 miles at the 1 March 2023 test, rose to 115,013 miles by 28 February 2024, and reached 116,763 miles by the failed test of 25 February 2025. Annual accumulation averages roughly 3,392 miles, confirming light use. A single anomaly appears in February 2025 when the Trooper failed on 25 February at 116,763 miles yet passed six weeks later on 1 April at 116,764 miles; the failure listed no defects, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault. The clean MOT history offers no flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, or corrosion items for the buyer to chase. Previous keepers clearly maintained the vehicle to pass standard with no outstanding advisories carried forward. A 1991 chassis however demands physical inspection beyond the test record. A buyer should scrutinise structural integrity for hidden rust at sills, chassis rails, and suspension mounting points given the age. Check drivetrain oils, transfer box, and front axle joints for degradation from long standing periods. Verify the February 2025 failure cause with the testing station, as the zero-defect record is irregular.
