2018 NISSAN GT-R3.8L Petrol

The Nissan GT-R’s only recorded MOT test, conducted on 3 September 2021, returned a pass with no defects or advisories at 2,597 miles. Nearly five years have elapsed since that examination, so current roadworthiness stays unverified by official records. A single clean result shows neither a worsening nor improving maintenance trend, but confirms the car met standards at the time. The odometer reading of 2,597 miles on an eight-year-old 2018 chassis equates to roughly 325 miles per year. That exact figure appears in the September 2021 test, and no later DVSA entries exist before 20 July 2026. The sparse history signals either prolonged storage or a statutory off-road period after the test, with no evidence of rapid mileage accumulation or intermittent gaps beyond the absent annual checks. A buyer should physically inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for degradation linked to inactivity rather than wear. The 2021 tester flagged nothing, yet standing GT-Rs often develop binding rear calipers, flat-spotted tyres, and corrosion on structural underbody points. Verify exhaust emissions and chassis integrity on a ramp, as the earlier pass gives no assurance for today. The solitary clean sheet at negligible mileage suggests a previous owner prioritised preservation over routine use. The failure to present the car for subsequent tests denies insight into ongoing care and may indicate a SORN declaration. Examine service paperwork and confirm whether unrecorded private-land miles have been covered before committing funds.
