Our Verdict
A solid option for those seeking a diesel workhorse with relatively consistent MOT results. While it has seen higher-than-average usage, the recent clean MOT history is a positive indicator.
When inspecting this 2.5L diesel Rodeo, prioritize checking the underside for corrosion, as is common with older diesel pickups. Given the high mileage compared to the model average, ensure you request evidence of regular oil changes and mechanical servicing to support the engine's longevity.
Negotiate based on the mileage; while the recent MOTs are clean, 107,947 miles is a substantial figure for a 16-year-old vehicle. Check the condition of the tyres and braking components, as these are common areas for wear in high-mileage utility vehicles.
Running costs for this Isuzu will be influenced by its 2499cc diesel engine. Expect moderate fuel economy typical of a 2010-era pickup, and be mindful of the insurance group, which varies depending on the driver's profile.
Maintenance costs should be budgeted for wear-and-tear items like suspension components and exhaust systems. Given the model's aggregate data, you should prepare for potential replacements of coil springs or headlamps. Estimated annual running costs are roughly £1,400-£1,700, including fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance.
Pay close attention to the lighting system and headlamps, as these are noted as a top failure reason for this model across the aggregate data. Also, inspect the exhaust system and coil springs for signs of fatigue or heavy corrosion.
Because this specific vehicle recorded a failure in January 2025 at 100,157 miles, verify that the issue causing that failure was fully rectified and hasn't recurred. Check the suspension bushings and any signs of leaks around the 2.5L diesel engine block.
This 2010 Isuzu Rodeo, finished in blue, has covered 107,947 miles since its first registration in October 2010. The MOT history shows five recorded tests, with one failure in early 2025 followed by two consecutive passes with no defects. The mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 6,119 miles per year, reflecting its likely use as a utility vehicle.
Aggregate data for this model shows an average MOT pass rate of 71.4%, with common failures related to headlamps, coil springs, and exhausts.
