2021 Nissan NV200 Electric · SG21 AFE

The Nissan NV200 presents a clean and stable roadworthiness record, with three consecutive MOT passes spanning October 2023 to October 2025—each showing no defects at all. The most recent test in October 2025 at 18,638 miles confirms the vehicle remains structurally sound, with no advisories or failures on critical systems like brakes, suspension, or emissions. This consistency suggests the car has been well maintained by its previous owners, at least in terms of compliance with MOT standards. The absence of recurring advisories or defects also implies no chronic issues with common wear points such as coil springs, binding calipers, or exhaust leaks. The mileage progression reveals a notably low annual average of around 3,728 miles, which is well below the UK fleet average for a vehicle of this age. Between October 2023 and October 2025, the odometer increased by just 10,525 miles—an unusually slow accumulation that could indicate light commercial use, infrequent private driving, or even prolonged periods of inactivity. Such low mileage reduces typical wear on consumables like tyres, brake pads, and suspension bushes, though it may also mean certain fluids (e.g., brake fluid, differential oil) have aged without regular renewal. The sparse but defect-free MOT history leaves little to infer about maintenance habits beyond compliance, but the lack of advisories suggests no major deferred repairs have been neglected. For a prospective buyer, the primary focus should be on components not routinely checked during MOTs. Given the low mileage, inspect the condition of the brake fluid and differential/oil levels, as these may not have been refreshed frequently. Check for early signs of corrosion in wheel arches or underseal, particularly if the vehicle has spent time in damp or salty conditions. The suspension—including bushings, shocks, and track rod ends—should be tested for stiffness or wear, as low-mileage vehicles can still develop issues if subjected to heavy loads or rough roads. Finally, verify the battery health, as a car with minimal driving exposure may have an aging battery that hasn’t been cycled regularly. The MOT history provides reassurance on major systems, but these areas require hands-on scrutiny.
