2006 Nissan 350 Z 3.5L Petrol · 446 DUE

The 2006 Nissan 350Z presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 28 April 2025 at 66,539 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable. The vehicle cleared its test at the second attempt in April 2025 after a failed attempt eleven days earlier on 17 April 2025, also at 66,539 miles and likewise showing no defects logged by the tester. This pattern repeats the prior year, where a February 2024 failure at 65,422 miles was followed by a pass on 21 February 2024 at the same mileage with no advisories. No worsening mechanical faults emerge across the three-year record. Recorded mileage sits at 66,539 against an age of around twenty years, equating to roughly 3,327 miles per year. The car was tested on 10 February 2023 at 64,556 miles, then 8 and 21 February 2024 at 65,422 miles, and finally twice in April 2025 at 66,539 miles. Annual use averaged under 1,000 miles across this span. Such low accumulation implies extended standing periods. The DVSA data is sparse and clean, with no advisories or consumable wear flagged at any stage, though absence of recorded faults does not confirm component condition. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs for deterioration linked to prolonged storage rather than use. Standing vehicles commonly develop corroded brake calipers and flat-spotted tyres; the tester logged none, but the record cannot capture latent issues. Examine structural integrity underneath for rust on sills and subframes given the car's age. Verify the reason for the two zero-defect failures, as DVLA systems occasionally omit listed items. Confirm the April 2025 failure did not involve emissions or documentation checks missed in the supplied extract. Independent inspection remains prudent before purchase.
