2022 Maxus Deliver 9 LUX 2.0L Diesel · WV72 RYG

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate following a clean pass on 12 December 2025 at 61,396 miles, with zero defects recorded. The maintenance trend over the two available entries is stable and positive. The preceding test on 14 November 2025 at 58,478 miles recorded a failure, though notably no defects were listed in the supplied data, suggesting the failure may have been administrative or resolved before a full retest was documented. The gap between that November failure and the December pass is tight, at just under one month, indicating the issue was addressed promptly rather than left to deteriorate. The mileage accumulation pattern is notable. Between the November 2025 test at 58,478 miles and the December 2025 test at 61,396 miles, the vehicle covered 2,918 miles in roughly four weeks. That is an unusually high short-term rate for a commercial van of this type and may point to intensive use during that period, such as a delivery run or long-distance hauling. Across its full life, the annualised rate of approximately 15,349 miles is above the UK average for a vehicle of this age and class. High-mileage commercial use accelerates wear on consumable components, particularly brake discs and pads, tyres, suspension bushes, and drivetrain mounts. The sparse MOT record, with only two entries covering a narrow window, limits the ability to identify longer-term patterns, but the clean December result suggests the vehicle was in sound mechanical order at that point. Buyers should inspect the front and rear suspension components carefully, paying close attention to lower suspension arms, anti-roll bar links, and coil springs, as high annual mileage places sustained loading on these parts. The braking system warrants particular scrutiny. With nearly 61,400 miles recorded and no prior brake-related advisories on file, it is reasonable to assume the discs, pads, and calipers have endured significant use. Check for uneven disc wear, binding calipers, and pad thickness remaining. Tyre condition and tread depth across all four corners, including the spare if fitted, should be verified, as high-mileage vans frequently wear through tyres well before the next test cycle. Structurally, inspect the chassis, subframes, and load floor for corrosion or cracking, especially around mounting points and wheel arches where road salt and heavy loads concentrate stress. Exhaust emissions compliance was confirmed at the December test, but a live cold-start check for excessive smoke or unusual exhaust tone remains advisable given the mileage. The steering rack, track rod ends, and CV joints should be examined for play or deterioration, as these components are directly correlated with high-mileage use. The clean MOT record is encouraging, but the limited history and elevated annual mileage mean a thorough in-person mechanical inspection is essential before purchase.
