2017 Isuzu D-MAX 1.9L Diesel · KX67 AHN

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, though the maintenance history reveals a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The most recent MOT test on 31 October 2025 at 96,778 miles passed with no defects, following a failure just three days prior. That failure at 96,777 miles identified missing brake pedal anti-slip provisions and excessively worn bushes on both rear shock absorbers. While these issues were clearly rectified, the recurrence of brake-related faults suggests that components are only addressed once they reach a failure threshold. The mileage progression is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,750 miles per year. The record shows steady usage, moving from 54,423 miles in October 2020 to 96,778 miles in October 2025. This consistent accumulation indicates the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of standing, which often causes the degradation of rubber components and seals. The gap between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests is standard, reflecting a annual inspection cycle. A buyer should focus closely on the suspension and braking system, as the history flags recurring issues in these areas. The 2021 failure at 63,996 miles noted imbalanced front brakes that required adjustment, while the 2025 failure highlighted worn rear shock bushes. Additionally, multiple instances of uneven tyre wear in 2021 and 2023 suggest potential alignment issues or worn suspension geometry that may not have been fully resolved. A physical inspection of the front suspension bushings and the current brake caliper condition is necessary to ensure that the previous mechanical failures have not resulted in lasting secondary wear to the drivetrain.
