2022 Isuzu D-MAX V-Cross Auto 1.9L Diesel · FJ22 XJM

The 2022 Isuzu D-Max V-Cross Auto holds a clean but limited MOT record. The sole recorded test on 2025-05-06 at 59,139 miles passed with zero defects, advisories, or failures, confirming the vehicle met minimum roadworthiness standards at that time. However, this single data point provides no longitudinal trend to assess whether mechanical condition has remained stable, improved, or deteriorated since. The absence of a subsequent MOT—due around May 2026—means the vehicle currently operates without a valid certificate, which is a material consideration for any prospective buyer. The mileage accumulation is notably aggressive for a vehicle of this age. Covering 59,139 miles by the May 2025 test implies an annual rate approaching 20,000 miles over the first three years, well above typical private ownership patterns. Such sustained high mileage accelerates wear on consumables and structural components alike. The lack of any MOT data beyond May 2025 leaves a gap of over a year of unverified condition, during which time the vehicle has likely accumulated further significant mileage. A buyer should treat this vehicle as a high-mileage working ute rather than a lightly used example. Suspension bushes, shock absorbers, and ball joints are prime candidates for deterioration under this workload. Brake condition—disc thickness, pad life, and caliper operation—warrants close inspection, as does the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks given the mileage. The automatic transmission service history should be verified; fluid changes at this interval are critical to longevity. Tyre condition, alignment, and any signs of structural corrosion around load-bearing points should be examined carefully. Given the single MOT data point and the vehicle's current untested status, a pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic represents prudent due diligence before committing to purchase.
