Our Verdict
Proceed with caution due to the exceptio
When inspecting this vehicle, prioritise a full mechanical health check from a specialist familiar with commercial Isuzu products. Given the mileage, the clutch, gearbox, and turbocharger should be scrutinised for signs of excessive wear or unusual noise, as these parts are prone to stress in high-mileage commercial applications.
Negotiate the price based on the high mileage and the fact that the vehicle will require frequent maintenance to stay roadworthy. Ensure you verify the service history to see if major components have been replaced or if the vehicle has been restricted to specific types of duty cycles.
As a 3.0-litre diesel commercial vehicle, fuel consumption will vary heavily depending on the load carried. You should expect higher-than-average maintenance costs due to the vehicle's age and the high mileage already recorded, which may lead to more frequent replacement of consumable parts like brakes, tyres, and suspension bushes.
Insurance for this class of vehicle can be complex; ensure you obtain quotes based on commercial usage. Annual running costs, including VED (road tax) for a commercial vehicle, fuel, and necessary maintenance, are estimated at £4,500–£6,000 depending on annual business mileage.
Inspect the suspension components closely, as the 2024 MOT noted wear in the front pins and bushes. While these were advisory items, they indicate the type of wear expected on a hard-working chassis and should be checked for current play or knocking sounds.
Check the tyre condition across all axles, noting that the 2026 test highlighted edge wear on the rear tyres. This can be a sign of tracking issues or overloading. Additionally, check the windscreen for any chips or cracks, as the vehicle has a history of windscreen-related advisories and failures.
This 2020 Isuzu Grafter N35.150 has covered 232,377 miles in six years, which is significantly higher than the typical usage for a light commercial vehicle. The MOT history shows a mix of minor advisories, including suspension wear and tyre issues, alongside one failure in 2023. Given the high-intensity work cycle this truck has clearly undergone, prospective buyers should factor in potential component fatigue.
There is no aggregate reliability data available for this specific Isuzu Grafter model, meaning buyers should rely on the individual vehicle's history and a professional mechanical inspection.
