2001 Nissan Stagea 2.5L Petrol · NY51 YDF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, following a clean pass on 30 May 2026 at 28,181 miles. This result indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year, where the car initially failed its inspection. The absence of any defects or advisories in the most recent test suggests that the owner has addressed previous mechanical shortcomings and is currently maintaining the vehicle to a functional standard. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 25-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,127 miles per year. Between June 2025 and May 2026, the car covered 4,370 miles, which represents a recent increase in usage frequency. While this low mileage reduces mechanical wear on the engine and drivetrain, long periods of stationary use often lead to degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and fluid breakdown that are not always captured by the MOT tester. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to surface corrosion if left in storage. The failure in June 2025 regarding ineffective windscreen wipers and a missing rear fog lamp indicates minor oversight in basic upkeep, but the subsequent clean pass suggests these specific items were rectified. Verify the condition of the suspension bushes and brake calipers, as these components can become seized or dry out due to age despite the low odometer reading.
