AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

This 1992 Isuzu Bighorn has a history of passing its MOT tests, with the most recent test in October 2024. The recurring mechanical pattern across the history involves an oil leak, which was noted in every test recorded. There have also been specific issues noted concerning the steering box play and tyre condition in earlier years. The trend in the MOT history shows that while the vehicle has passed, specific mechanical concerns have been noted across multiple inspections, suggesting ongoing wear or issues that were not fully resolved. The mileage of 188,638 miles for a vehicle of this age suggests an average of approximately 5,548 miles per year. This mileage level is relatively low for a vehicle of this age, which could indicate lighter overall use or potentially long periods where the vehicle was not driven regularly. A buyer should first thoroughly inspect the engine bay for the noted oil leak and assess the condition of the steering box for any excessive play. Secondly, given the history of tyre wear and brake pad wear noted in 2020, the buyer must closely examine the condition of all tyres and brake components in person. Finally, check the underside of the vehicle for any signs of rust, as this was noted in the 2020 inspection.
