2017 Nissan Navara 2.3L Diesel · PY17 AEN

The vehicle currently holds a clean MOT status following its most recent test on 29 May 2026 at 75,476 miles. While the most recent result shows no defects, the maintenance trend suggests a pattern of reactive rather than proactive upkeep. The vehicle has experienced two significant failures in the last two years, indicating that components are often only addressed once they reach a point of non-compliance. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical usage pattern for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,386 miles per year. Between May 2023 and May 2026, the mileage rose from 49,115 to 75,476, showing steady annual progression without any suspicious gaps or sudden surges. This steady usage suggests the vehicle has not been sitting idle for extended periods, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals. The MOT history highlights specific areas requiring close physical inspection. The failure in June 2025 at 67,700 miles revealed a major exhaust leak and multiple tyres reaching or exceeding legal wear limits. This indicates a tendency for the previous owner to run consumables to their absolute limit. A buyer should check the integrity of the entire exhaust system and ensure all four tyres have adequate tread and even wear. The June 2024 failure at 58,045 miles flagged a fractured nearside front coil spring and pitted brake discs. Although these issues were rectified to achieve a pass, the occurrence of a broken spring and worn discs suggests the suspension and braking systems have faced significant stress. I recommend a thorough inspection of the front suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers to ensure no further degradation or binding issues exist.
