Email that lands in the spam folder is mail that has been delivered, but it simply didn't get to the place you wanted.

This is almost always a message content issue.  Unfortunately there isn't a mail server on the planet that is going to get around an ISP marking you as SPAM, but hey, the MTA delivered the message to the remote gateway, right?

Surely it could be a matter of reputation as well? Not just content related?

No not always, your list as much if not more to do with that than the content of your email.
