2010 Nissan 370 Z 3.7L Petrol · 67 KD

The 2010 Nissan 370Z presents a stable and generally improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass on 2 February 2026 at 99,016 miles. The most recent test recorded three advisories, all relating to tyre wear rather than structural or mechanical failure. This marks a notable improvement over the preceding years, where exhaust system defects were present. The vehicle has not failed an MOT within the provided record, indicating consistent baseline roadworthiness, though the recurring tyre wear pattern suggests an underlying issue that demands attention. The mileage accumulation is remarkably linear and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between the February 2022 test at 74,810 miles and the February 2026 test at 99,016 miles, the vehicle covered 24,206 miles over four years, averaging approximately 6,050 miles annually. There are no significant gaps in the MOT record that would suggest prolonged periods of inactivity or sudden, high-mileage accumulation. The steady rate of wear aligns directly with the recurring tyre advisories observed across multiple test cycles. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension geometry and wheel alignment. The repeated advisories for inner edge wear on both front and rear tyres, noted in January 2025 and again in February 2026, point to a persistent misalignment or worn suspension bushes and tracking settings. This is not a simple case of aggressive driving; it is a mechanical condition that, if left uncorrected, will continue to destroy tyres prematurely. The front exhaust system also warrants close scrutiny. In January 2025, the tester flagged a minor exhaust leak and a defective flex pipe mounting. While the February 2026 test recorded no such defect, implying a repair was carried out, the buyer should verify the quality of that work and inspect the entire exhaust for corrosion, particularly around the flex pipe and manifold joints. Beneath the vehicle, check for structural corrosion on the subframes, sills, and suspension mounting points, as these are common failure areas on older sports cars that may have seen damp storage or winter use. The braking system and drivetrain components, while not flagged in the MOT records, should be inspected for wear consistent with nearly 100,000 miles of use. The tyre wear pattern is the most telling diagnostic clue in this record; it reveals a car that has been maintained enough to pass its tests but not always finely tuned. A pre-purchase inspection that includes a full four-wheel alignment check is strongly recommended before committing to the purchase.
