Mechanical Assessment
The vehicle shows a stable maintenance trend based on the available records, though the data is severely outdated. The most recent entry is from November 8, 2021, where the car passed at 129,371 miles. Because there are no recorded MOT tests between November 2021 and July 2026, the current roadworthiness cannot be verified. The vehicle has been off the official testing circuit for nearly five years, which creates a significant gap in its mechanical history. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle. It covered 9,676 miles between April 2018 and April 2019, and another 14,300 miles by November 2020. The record shows the vehicle remained stationary at 129,371 miles from the November 2020 test through to the November 2021 pass. This suggests the car may have been stored or used very sparingly for the last several years. A buyer must prioritize a full mechanical inspection due to the long period of inactivity. Long-term standing often leads to seized brake calipers, perished tyre sidewalls, and degraded battery health. The absence of any recorded defects or advisories from 2018 to 2021 is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage, meaning previous testers may have been lenient or the car was exceptionally well maintained. Specific attention should be paid to the structural integrity of the chassis. Nissan vehicles of this era are prone to corrosion on the sills and suspension mounting points. Given the five-year gap in testing, a professional should check for rust and ensure the engine fluids have not degraded. The lack of recent data means the buyer is essentially starting from a blank slate regarding the current state of the suspension bushes and brake discs.
