2011 Nissan NV200 1.5L Diesel · NA61 AAU

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test, conducted on 28 June 2025 at 138,080 miles, confirms it remains roadworthy without any recorded defects or advisories. Over the past five tests—all passing without fail—there is no evidence of recurring mechanical issues or worsening conditions. The consistent pass status suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the absence of advisories or defects does not guarantee hidden wear. The last test was conducted just over a year ago, which is within the standard MOT validity period, but the lack of any recorded issues in prior tests also implies a stable pattern of compliance with minor wear limits. The recorded mileage of 138,080 miles over approximately 15 years equates to an average of around 9,200 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no significant gaps in mileage accumulation between tests, and the intervals between MOTs align closely with the 12-month validity period. The most notable observation is the duplicate entry for June 2022, where both a pass and a fail are recorded at the same mileage, which may indicate an administrative error rather than a mechanical issue. This pattern does not suggest aggressive driving or prolonged neglect, but it does highlight the need for verification of service records beyond MOT history. Given the absence of defects or advisories in the MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear components that are not routinely tested. The suspension system, particularly the coil springs, bushes, and shock absorbers, should be examined for excessive play, corrosion, or leaks, as these are common failure points in a vehicle of this age and mileage. Brake discs and pads, while not flagged in the MOT, may show uneven wear or glazing, particularly if the vehicle has experienced rapid acceleration or heavy braking. Structural integrity, including underbody corrosion around the sills, wheel arches, and exhaust system, should also be assessed, as rust can compromise the chassis over time. Finally, the exhaust system’s integrity should be checked for leaks or damage, as emissions-related failures are not always captured in MOT records.
