Deliver fuel types
Most Maxus Deliver cars tested in 2025 were electric. Electric cars need an MOT from three years old like any other car, and their tyres, brakes, suspension and lights are tested the same way.
Where the Deliver fails its MOT
Where Maxus Deliver cars that failed their 2025 MOT were marked down, as a share of all recorded failure items.

What should you check when buying a used Deliver?
The areas above, most common first, and what an MOT tester looks at in each.
1
Lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment
Walk round with every light on: headlights, brake lights, indicators, fog lights and the number plate lamp. Check no warning lights stay on after starting. 37.7% of Deliver failure items.
2
Visibility
Check the windscreen for chips or cracks in the driver's view, and that the wipers and washers clear it properly. 14.5% of Deliver failure items.
3
Brakes
Make sure the pedal feels firm, the car stops in a straight line, the handbrake holds on a slope and no brake warning light is showing. 13.7% of Deliver failure items.
4
Tyres
Check tread depth across the full width of every tyre (the legal minimum is 1.6mm), and look for cuts, bulges and uneven wear. 11.4% of Deliver failure items.
5
Suspension
Listen for knocks over bumps, check the car sits level, and look for leaking shock absorbers and split rubber gaiters. 10.2% of Deliver failure items.

What the MOT record doesn't tell you
Knowing Maxus Deliver failures cluster around lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment and visibility tells you what to inspect. It tells you nothing about whether the car is safe to buy. An MOT does not show money still owed on the car, a write-off, a theft record or a clocked odometer.

Used Maxus Deliver FAQs
Is the Maxus Deliver reliable?

What should I check before buying a used Maxus Deliver?
On the car itself, start with the areas it most often fails on: lamps, reflectors and electrical equipment, visibility and brakes. Then check the individual car's history: outstanding finance, insurance write-off records, stolen markers, mileage and previous keepers. None of these appear in the MOT record or on the V5C.
