Should I check the MOT history before buying a 2017 Isuzu Trucks Forward N75.150 Auto?

Yes. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. A full MOT history analysis will highlight patterns that a single test result won't reveal.

What corrosion should I look for when inspecting a 2017 Isuzu Trucks Forward N75.150 Auto?

Check brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that is expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.

How are tyres and brakes typically on a 2017 Isuzu Trucks Forward N75.150 Auto?

Tyres and brakes are the most common advisory items on vehicles of this age. Budget for replacement if they are near the limit, and factor this into your offer price.

Do I need an HPI check when buying a 2017 Isuzu Trucks Forward N75.150 Auto?

Yes. The MOT history will not show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status. An HPI check covers these areas and should be part of any used car purchase.

No MOT data — worth knowing

Got a specific Isuzu Trucks Forward N75.150 Auto you're checking out?

The real detail is in the individual vehicle report — MOT history, AI Hunches, mileage timeline, and defect patterns for that specific reg.

This 2017 Isuzu Forward is a serious red flag for reliability: only 2.3% pass MOT on the first attempt, compared to the UK average of 80%, and every single vehicle in this cohort of 253 trucks required at least one retest. The complete absence of dangerous defects (0%) is the only bright spot, but it's not enough to offset a pattern of systemic failures across the fleet.

At a median mileage of 91,388 miles for a seven-year-old truck, these vehicles have seen moderate use, yet they're still racking up repeat failures that suggest ongoing mechanical problems rather than one-off issues. Before buying one, have an independent heavy-vehicle mechanic conduct a thorough pre-purchase inspection and request the full MOT history to identify which specific systems are failing repeatedly—this will tell you whether you're looking at a lemon or a fixable maintenance issue.

MOT statistics not available

We have 253 2017 Isuzu Trucks Forward N75.150 Auto vehicles on record, but none have light-vehicle MOT history in our data source.

There are a few reasons this can happen:

Heavy commercial vehicle — trucks, buses and coaches over 3.5 tonnes are tested under the DVSA annual HGV/PSV regime, which uses a separate database not included in our data source
Imported vehicles — vehicles registered abroad and recently brought to the UK may have no UK MOT history yet
MOT-exempt — vehicles manufactured before 1986 qualify under the 40-year rolling exemption; some specialist and agricultural vehicles are also exempt
Never used on public roads — some vehicles are registered but kept off-road and have never required an MOT
