2021 Isuzu D Max Dl20 Auto
CarHunch analysed 152 real MOT records for the 2021 Isuzu D Max Dl20 Auto. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2021 Isuzu D-Max DL20 Auto passes its MOT on the first attempt 83.4% of the time, which is a solid 3.4 percentage points above the UK average—this pickup truck is proving more reliable than typical for its age. The 12.5% rate of dangerous defects is moderate and not a major red flag, though buyers should still factor in potential safety-critical repairs.
At 52,843 miles average, these vehicles are running a touch above typical mileage for their age, yet they're averaging just 0.51 failures per test, suggesting the extra miles haven't taken much of a toll. The real-world picture is one of minor niggles: advisories average 1.9 per vehicle, mostly low-cost wear items. When shopping, have a pre-purchase inspection focus on the suspension and braking components—the staples of pickup truck wear—to catch small issues before they compound.
What to check before buying a 2021 Isuzu D Max Dl20 Auto
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
