2021 Nissan X-Trail 1.3L Petrol · AE21 FLC

The Nissan X-Trail presents as roadworthy following the most recent pass on 26 February 2026 at 51,679 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, as every completed test from 2024 through 2026 shows a clean result with no advisories or mechanical faults raised. The vehicle carries a current valid pass, though the same-day fail on 26 February 2026 with no defects logged points to an administrative or documentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical concern. Annual mileage sits at roughly 10,300 miles, which is typical for a five-year-old vehicle. The records show 26,369 miles on 16 February 2024, rising to 26,375 miles by 2 March 2024, then 40,196 miles on 27 February 2025, and 51,679 miles on 26 February 2026. The early 2024 pair indicates a negligible 6-mile gap between a fail and a pass within two weeks, while the yearly increments of around 13,000 and 11,000 miles reflect consistent, moderate use with no standing periods or abrupt accumulation. No tester flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions across the history. The absence of advisories on consumables such as tyres and wiper blades suggests previous owners kept basic upkeep current. The same-day fail with zero defects in February 2026 implies the prior failure was procedural, not a sign of skipped maintenance. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and drivetrain components, given DVSA tests do not strip panels or measure hidden rust. Verify the February 2026 fail reason on the DVSA portal, confirm service history matches the 11,000-mile yearly pattern, and check brake caliper operation and underbody condition despite the clean MOT record.
