2004 Nissan Almera 1.5L Petrol · AF54 KYR

The 2004 Nissan Almera presents a stable and clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 2 February 2026 at 45,732 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year pass sequence. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration and no advisories across the entire available history, indicating the vehicle has been presented for test in sound mechanical order each year. Recorded mileage sits at 45,732 against an age of roughly 22 years, equating to about 2,079 miles per year. The test on 1 February 2022 captured 30,525 miles, rising to 34,197 by 1 February 2023, 37,715 by 31 January 2024, 41,521 by 29 January 2025, and 45,732 by February 2026. Annual accumulation held steady near 4,000 miles with no gaps or sudden jumps. Such low, consistent use implies light running but also probable long stationary periods, which the MOT record itself does not flag. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural corrosion on sills, subframes, and suspension mounting points, as the Almera of this era is prone to underbody rust that a pass with no defects may not detail. The tester recorded no worn suspension bushes, coil spring fractures, or binding calipers, yet standing time can seize brake components and degrade rubber mounts unseen on a clean sheet. Verify the service history independently and confirm fluid changes, as the MOT offers no insight into engine or gearbox care. The clean record reflects compliant annual presentation rather than proven upkeep, so a pre-purchase examination of brake discs, exhaust emissions, and tyre sidewall condition remains prudent before purchase.
