Our Verdict
A solid recommendation for those seeking a dependable, low-mileage workhorse. While there are minor historical wear-and-tear issues, the overall MOT record is remarkably clean for a 2012 diesel utility vehicle.
Focus your attention on the chassis and underbody. While the MOT history is generally positive, the 2022 advisories regarding leaf spring shackle pins and bushes suggest the suspension is beginning to show its age. Verify if these were ever replaced or if they remain as advisories.
Check the service history for evidence of regular oil changes for the 2.5L diesel engine. Given the low mileage, ensure the vehicle hasn't spent excessive time idling or doing very short trips, which can lead to carbon buildup in older diesel engines. Negotiate based on the condition of the tyres, as the 2024 MOT noted inner edge wear on the offside front, which may indicate a need for wheel alignment.
The 2499cc diesel engine is designed for torque and durability rather than efficiency. Expect modest fuel economy typical of a 2012-era utility vehicle, paired with a standard diesel tax bracket for this age of vehicle.
Insurance costs are generally reasonable for the TF, though this varies by driver profile. Maintenance should be straightforward, though genuine Isuzu parts can occasionally be more expensive than generic alternatives. Annual costs will be dominated by fuel and the necessity of maintaining heavy-duty suspension components.
Prioritise an inspection of the rear suspension. The MOT history specifically flagged wear in the leaf spring shackle pins and bushes in February 2022; check for any current play or noise from the rear axle area. Additionally, inspect the front tyres for uneven wear, as the 2024 MOT highlighted inner edge wearing on the offside front.
Check the interior for general wear, specifically the front seat belt webbing which was noted as frayed in 2024. Finally, perform a quick check of all external lighting and wipers, as these were the primary causes of the minor MOT failures in 2021 and 2022.
This green Isuzu TF presents as a well-maintained example with 79,344 miles on the clock as of February 2026, which is exceptionally low for its age. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passes, with failures limited to basic consumables like tyres, wipers, and bulbs. Recent history suggests a vehicle that is used regularly but not abused, maintaining a steady mileage increase of approximately 5,000-6,000 miles per year in recent periods.
The Isuzu TF is generally regarded as a rugged and dependable platform, though specific aggregate data for this model is limited.
