2016 Nissan Navara 2.3L Diesel · 50 ROB

This Nissan Navara presents a stable roadworthiness record in its most recent MOT cycles, with the November 2025 test at 46,247 miles showing no defects at all—a clean pass that aligns with the November 2024 result at 40,525 miles. The only historical irregularity appears in the April 2022 test, where slightly lipped and worn front brake discs were noted at 27,595 miles, though this was not repeated in subsequent tests. The absence of advisories, major defects, or recurring issues in the past two years suggests either diligent maintenance or a vehicle that has been lightly used. That said, the April 2022 entry indicates the discs were not replaced, which could imply either a temporary fix or a deliberate deferral by the owner. The mileage progression reveals a vehicle that has been driven sparingly, averaging just over 4,600 miles annually—a figure well below the UK average for a 10-year-old pickup. The gap between the April 2023 test (32,132 miles) and the April 2022 test (27,595 miles) covers roughly 11 months with only 4,537 miles logged, reinforcing the impression of infrequent use. Similarly, the jump from 40,525 miles in November 2024 to 46,247 miles in November 2025 suggests another period of light activity, with just 5,722 miles covered in 12 months. Such low mileage reduces wear on consumables but may also mask underlying issues if components like suspension bushes or brake fluid have been neglected over long periods of inactivity. For a prospective buyer, the most critical area to scrutinise in person would be the front brake system, particularly the discs and calipers, given the 2022 MOT note on lipping and wear. While the discs may have been replaced since, binding calipers or uneven pad wear could still be present. The suspension should also be checked for signs of degraded bushes or coil springs, especially if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary—rust or stiffness in these areas can develop without regular movement. Exhaust emissions and structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and underseal, should be inspected closely, as low-mileage vehicles can still suffer from age-related deterioration if stored in harsh conditions. Tyre condition and tread depth warrant immediate verification, though the MOT history offers no cause for concern on this front.
