2013 NISSAN X-TRAIL2.0L Diesel

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive repairs rather than preventative upkeep. The most recent test in August 2025 at 124,374 miles resulted in a pass despite an offside track rod end ball joint exhibiting slight play. This follows a clean record in 2024, suggesting that while the vehicle remains mechanically sound, components are beginning to show the wear consistent with its age and mileage. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per year. The data shows steady accumulation, moving from 91,607 miles in July 2021 to 124,374 miles by August 2025. This consistent usage indicates regular operation rather than long periods of standing, which often leads to internal corrosion or fluid degradation. However, the total mileage over 124,000 miles places significant stress on rubber-bonded suspension components and the braking system. A buyer should focus inspection on the front suspension geometry, as the track rod end issue indicates potential degradation elsewhere elsewhere. The 2023 test flagged multiple tyres worn to the legal limit and thin rear brake pads, revealing a pattern of neglecting consumable items until they approach failure thresholds. The recurring mention of nearside rear tyre wear between 2022 and 2023 suggests a possible alignment issue or a sticking caliper that requires a professional check. Physical inspection of the chassis for structural corrosion is also essential, as the MOT records do not detail the integrity of the mounting points or underbody.
