2012 Isuzu D-MAX Yukon D/C Intercooler TD 2.5L Diesel · PN12 YCX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the recent inspection history reveals a trend of reactive rather than proactive maintenance. While the car passed its latest MOT in October 2025 at 89,715 miles, it suffered a significant failure just six days prior. This failure highlighted multiple critical safety issues, including a major exhaust leak, excessive corrosion on the rear towbar, and structural body damage likely to become detached. The fact that these faults were addressed immediately before the pass suggests the owner only performs repairs when legally necessary to maintain the road test certificate. At 89,715 miles, the fourteen-year-old D-Max has averaged approximately 6,400 miles per year, which is consistent with low-use patterns for a vehicle. The mileage accumulation appears steady, with roughly 7,200 miles covered between the October 2024 and October 2025 tests. However, low mileage does not exempt the vehicle from age-related degradation. The record shows recurring issues with rubber components and metal fatigue, which are common in vehicles that spend long periods standing rather than undergoing high-frequency distance driving. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front wheel assemblies, as the tester flagged play in both front bearings in 2024 and a noisy nearside front bearing again in the October 2025 test. This indicates a developing fault in the hubs that requires monitoring. Furthermore, the structural integrity of the rear body and the towbar area needs close scrutiny, as the 2025 failure noted excessive corrosion and body damage that risked detachment. The brake system should also be checked for current levels, as records of thin pads and scored discs from 2023 suggest these components are nearing the end of their functional life.
