Our Verdict
This is a highly recommended example for
Given the low mileage of 17,213 miles, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to ensure the engine has been maintained according to the manufacturer's schedule. While the MOT history is clean, an MOT is a test of roadworthiness, not a guarantee of mechanical perfection, so a full service book check is essential.
When negotiating, ask for evidence of any oil changes or routine maintenance performed between the annual MOT tests. Because this is a larger 2287cc diesel engine, ensure that the manufacturer's specific service intervals for this engine variant have been strictly followed to prevent long-term issues.
As a 2.3L diesel, running costs will be influenced by fuel economy, which is typically efficient for motorway cruising but may be higher in stop-start urban environments. You should check the specific tax band for this 2021 model, as Euro 6 compliance helps with ULEZ and CAZ compliance, potentially saving on daily charges.
Insurance groups for a vehicle of this engine size can vary significantly depending on the specific trim level and driver profile. Expect maintenance costs to be moderate, with typical diesel-specific requirements like fuel filter changes. An estimated annual running cost is provided below.
Since the MOT history for VX21ARO shows no recorded defects or advisories since 2024, there are no specific recurring failures to investigate. However, you should perform a standard inspection of the tyres, brakes, and lights, as these are common areas for wear even on low-mileage vehicles.
For this specific 2287cc diesel engine, it is wise to inspect the condition of the battery and check for any signs of fluid leaks under the vehicle. Even with a clean MOT record, a physical inspection of the underside can reveal if the vehicle has been driven on rougher terrain or if there is any early signs of corrosion.
Registered in June 2021, this white MAUBU has covered 17,213 miles as of its most recent MOT in May 2026. The vehicle shows a consistent pattern of passing its MOT tests with zero defects recorded since its first test in 2024. With a 2.3L diesel engine, it appears to have been used for relatively light annual mileage compared to typical diesel usage patterns.
There is currently no aggregate MOT data available to determine the long-term reliability reputation of the MAUBU model.
