NISSAN X-TRAIL2016 · 1.6L Diesel

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-08-18 at 64,548 miles recorded a PASS with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. However, the prior year’s records reveal inconsistency: a FAIL on 2024-08-19 at 56,870 miles and a subsequent PASS on 2024-08-20 at the same mileage, suggesting potential administrative error or incomplete testing. No defects were noted in either case, but the repeated testing within a day raises questions about the accuracy of the 2024 records. The 2023-01-27 test at 47,252 miles also passed without issues, confirming a generally reliable history. The vehicle’s mileage of 64,548 miles at 10 years old aligns with average annual usage of 6,455 miles. A notable gap exists between the 2023-01-27 test (47,252 miles) and the 2024-08-01 test (56,408 miles), reflecting a 9,156-mile increase over 19 months, which is within normal parameters. The 2024-08-19 and 2024-08-20 tests at 56,870 miles show minimal mileage progression, possibly indicating short-term usage or recording anomalies. The absence of defects in the last three tests suggests consistent upkeep, though the 2024-08-19 FAIL without recorded issues warrants scrutiny. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, given the vehicle’s age and typical wear patterns. The exhaust system and brake components, including calipers and discs, should also be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as these are common in older vehicles. While the MOT records show no immediate faults, the 2024-08-19 test’s unresolved status and the vehicle’s 10-year age necessitate a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm structural integrity and mechanical reliability.
