Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeking a low-mileage workhorse. This 2016 Isuzu D-Max has been sparingly used and maintains a consistent passing MOT record.
Focus your attention on the suspension and chassis. The MOT history shows recurring advisories for worn shock absorber bushes on both the nearside and offside rear (noted in 2024 and 2026), which suggests these components are reaching the end of their natural life and may soon require replacement.
Verify the service history to ensure the 2.5L diesel engine has had regular oil changes, as these engines are built for longevity if maintained. Negotiate the price based on the need for new rear shock bushes and the current windscreen damage mentioned in the most recent two MOT tests.
As a 2.5L diesel, this D-Max is designed for torque and towing rather than efficiency. Expect moderate fuel costs, though it benefits from the robust nature of the Isuzu powerplant which typically avoids expensive catastrophic failures.
Annual costs will include a standard diesel road tax bracket and insurance tailored for a commercial-style vehicle. Maintenance is generally straightforward, though parts for 4x4 systems can be more expensive than standard passenger cars.
Prioritise a physical inspection of the rear suspension; the MOT history specifically flags worn bushes on the lower shock absorbers in both 2024 and 2026. Check the windscreen for the damage noted in the 2025 and 2026 MOTs to see if it has progressed into a crack that requires a full replacement.
Additionally, check the offside front wheel bearing, which showed slight play in February 2025, and ensure the parking brake feel is firm, following the 'long travel' advisory recorded in 2022.
This silver Isuzu D-Max is in impressive condition for its age, with only 68,211 miles on the clock as of February 2026. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passes with only minor advisory notes, suggesting the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme heavy-duty abuse. It represents a reliable value proposition for those needing a 2.5L diesel capability with below-average wear.
While aggregate data is unavailable, the specific history of this vehicle suggests high reliability with only minor wear-and-tear items noted over five years.
