2005 Nissan Almera 1.5L Petrol · HN55 AFZ

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state based on the most recent MOT pass on 6 November 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the record shows a consistent pattern of passing tests without any recorded defects or advisories across the last three years. This lack of flagged issues suggests the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without requiring significant remedial work during the testing process. The mileage data presents a significant irregularity that requires scrutiny. The vehicle recorded 112,762 miles in October 2023 and 114,839 miles in November 2024. However, the most recent entry on 6 November 2025 shows a mileage of 105,156 miles, which is nearly 11,000 miles lower than the previous year. This discrepancy indicates either a clerical error by the MOT tester or a potential issue with the odometer. The overall average of 5,007 miles per year is low for a 21-year-old car, which often suggests limited use or periods of inactivity. A buyer must verify the actual mileage and inspect the odometer for signs of tampering or failure. Since the MOT history is unusually clean and lacks any advisories for a vehicle of this age, a physical inspection should focus on areas the tests may have overlooked or that develop between inspections. Specifically, check for structural corrosion on the sills and chassis, as rust is common in Almeras of this vintage. Examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, and check for brake disc corrosion if the car has spent long periods standing.
