2017 Isuzu D-MAX 1.9L Diesel · BK17 CBU

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having achieved a clean pass in its most recent test in February 2025 at 123,920 miles. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory as the mechanical defects identified in previous years have been addressed. The absence of advisories in the latest inspection suggests that the current owner is proactive in rectifying faults once they are flagged by the MOT tester. The mileage reflects a high-use profile, averaging approximately 13,700 miles per year over its nine-year life. There is a significant surge in usage between February 2022 and March 2024, where the vehicle covered over 38,000 miles in just two years. This rapid accumulation is consistent with heavy commercial or long-distance use, which accelerates the wear on drivetrain components and suspension bushings. The consistent annual testing intervals indicate the vehicle has remained in regular use rather than sitting for long periods. A physical inspection should focus on the front-end suspension and braking system given the history of failures. The 2024 test flagged a deteriorated offside front upper suspension arm ball joint dust cover, while the 2022 test noted play in the offside front wheel bearing and a worn bush on the rear shock absorber. A buyer should verify that these components were replaced and show no signs of premature play. Additionally, since the front brake discs were noted as pitted or scored in 2024, the inspector should check for current thickness and uneven wear to ensure the discs were not nearing their minimum limit.
