2022 Maxus E Deliver 3 Electricity · LR72 PRV

The most recent DVSA MOT, carried out on 3 December 2025, was passed with no recorded defects or advisories. With only a single MOT entry available, the evidence points to a stable maintenance pattern; there are no indications of recurring faults or a deteriorating condition, and the vehicle has met the statutory safety and emissions criteria at its latest test. At four years old the Maxus e‑Deliver records 18 445 miles, equating to roughly 4 600 miles per annum. This is considerably below the typical utilisation for a light commercial vehicle of this class, suggesting either a light‑load operational profile or extended periods of inactivity. Low annual mileage reduces wear on tyre tread, brake linings, suspension bushings and drivetrain components, but it can also mean that seals and rubber components have aged without the benefit of regular movement, potentially leading to stiffness or cracking. For a prospective buyer the primary visual and tactile checks should focus on age‑related degradation rather than mileage‑driven wear. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for signs of perishing such as cracking, dry rot or hardening, and verify that the tread depth is still within legal limits. Examine the wheel arches, under‑body and chassis for any corrosion, especially around suspension mounting points and battery mounting brackets, as standing periods can promote rust formation. Assess the 12‑volt auxiliary battery for voltage and cranking performance, and, given the vehicle’s electric drivetrain, confirm that the high‑voltage battery management system displays normal state‑of‑charge and that there are no visible coolant leaks or signs of overheating around the inverter and motor coolant circuits. During a short test drive listen for any unusual noises such as clunking from the front suspension, which could indicate worn bushings or deteriorated coil‑spring mounts, and feel for any pull or vibration that might suggest tyre imbalance or uneven wear. Apply the brakes firmly to detect any shudder, pulsation or reduced pedal feel that could point to surface rust on the discs or marginally seized calipers, a common occurrence in vehicles that sit idle for long periods. Finally, request the full service history and any records of high‑voltage battery health checks; confirming that the manufacturer‑specified coolant and brake fluid have been replaced at the recommended intervals will help ensure the vehicle remains reliable and road‑worthy beyond the next MOT.
