This 2013 D-Max falls slightly short of the UK average with a 76.1% first-time pass rate, and more concerning, over a quarter of these vehicles (27.5%) have recorded a dangerous defect at some point—that's a meaningful reliability red flag for a buyer to factor in. The diesel engine itself isn't the weak link; it performs at the cohort's expected standard.

These trucks have covered a reasonable 76,188 miles at median for their age, yet they're averaging 2.54 failures and 17.3 advisories per test, suggesting the cooling system, suspension, and brakes demand close inspection on any example you're considering. Before committing, have a pre-purchase inspection focus on the intercooler plumbing, radiator condition, and brake wear—this model shows enough variation in outcomes that a careful look now can save you significant repair costs later.

The 2013 Isuzu D Max Yukon D/c Intercooler Td has a decent first-time pass rate (78.2%), but a higher-than-average share of vehicles have had serious defects recorded — the individual vehicle's history matters a lot here.

⚠️ Over 1 in 5 of these vehicles have had a dangerous MOT failure at some point — usually tyres or brakes, and often a one-off issue rather than a persistent problem. The group stats won't tell you which one you're looking at.

For context

🔧 Average reliability. Passes at roughly the UK rate — not a standout, not a problem vehicle. Individual history makes all the difference.

🔧 Expect consumable spend. An average of 17.3 advisories per vehicle tells you wear items (tyres, brakes) get flagged regularly. Budget for them — they're not surprises.

🔍 The dangerous defect figure is real. Most are one-off tyre failures or brake issues — not structural problems. But it's exactly why checking the individual vehicle's history is essential, not optional.

These stats describe 672 vehicles as a group. The specific vehicle you're looking at could be the one good example or the one outlier. Run its registration to find out.
