2016 Isuzu Trucks Grafter N35.120 3.0L Diesel · WK16 AEW

The vehicle currently lacks a valid MOT certificate, as the most recent test occurred on 21 March 2023. While that test resulted in a pass at 276,112 miles, the vehicle has been off the official testing cycle for over three years relative to the current date of July 2026. The maintenance trend appears stable based on the recorded data, with no defects listed across multiple years of testing. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a ten year old vehicle. Between 18 March 2020 and 21 March 2023, the odometer rose from 140,727 to 276,112 miles. This represents a gain of 135,385 miles in just three years, averaging roughly 45,000 miles per annum during that period. Such heavy usage typically accelerates the wear of drivetrain components and chassis integrity. A physical inspection must prioritise the chassis and load-bearing areas for corrosion, as high-mileage commercial vehicles often suffer structural degradation that may not be captured in a clean MOT history. The buyer should specifically check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and steering linkages. Given the extreme mileage, the state of the brake discs and calipers requires verification to ensure no significant wear or binding has occurred since the last test. The absence of recorded defects over five years is unusual for a vehicle with this level of usage. This suggests either a very rigorous preventative maintenance regime or a lack of detailed reporting by the testers. A thorough mechanical audit of the engine and gearbox is essential to confirm the vehicle remains fit for purpose after nearly 280,000 miles of service.
