2016 Isuzu D-MAX 2.5L Diesel · YH16 XPJ

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently failing, as the most recent MOT test on 2025-06-06 was a PASSED test with no recorded defects, yet the vehicle has suffered multiple failures since that date. This indicates a lack of consistent maintenance, with the failure to pass on 2025-06-02 being a significant deviation from the previous passing test. The pattern of repeated failures suggests that basic upkeep was not kept up, likely due to the vehicle's age and the specific faults recorded in the history. Regarding the mileage pattern, the vehicle has accumulated approximately 11,815 miles annually, which is consistent with its 10-year age. However, the lack of a passing MOT in 2025-06-06 creates a notable gap between the 2025 test and the most recent failure on 2025-06-02. While the vehicle has not been tested since 2025, the failure on 2025-06-02 suggests that the car has been driven for over two months, which is sufficient for the engine to fail on a standard MOT. This rapid mileage accumulation without a passing test indicates that the car is not maintained according to the standard 12-month cycle, a critical factor for a vehicle with this age. To assess whether the vehicle requires immediate intervention, the buyer must inspect the engine and suspension systems, as the most recent failure on 2025-06-02 involved a nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint. The engine MIL inoperative condition on that test suggests that the engine may be experiencing wear or damage that requires professional assessment. Additionally, the failure on 2025-06-02 for the parking brake efficiency below requirements indicates that the brake system may be compromised, which could lead to a loss of braking power. A thorough inspection is necessary to determine if the structural integrity of the suspension, brakes, or the engine itself has deteriorated to a point where the vehicle cannot be driven safely.
