AIG 7 MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 Nissan Gt-R (AIG 7) between January 2022 and October 2025.
The record contains 4 passes and 1 failure.
The most recent test on 16 October 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Lighting (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 3 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm o/s & n/s worn uneven and in places below 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”.

Our Verdict
A potentially strong option for enthusia
When viewing this GT-R, your primary focus should be on the 2024 emissions test result. Ask the seller for documentation proving that any faults causing the emissions struggle were identified and rectified. Because the 2024 failure also involved uneven tyre wear, you should inspect the suspension components and alignment to ensure there are no underlying geometry issues.
Request a detailed service history to complement the MOT data. For a 3.8L twin-turbo engine, consistent maintenance is critical. Check if the high-performance tyres have been replaced recently, as the 2024 MOT failure specifically noted tread depths below the 1.6mm legal limit on both rear tyres.
Owning a 3799cc petrol GT-R involves substantial running costs. Expect high fuel consumption consistent with a large-capacity performance engine. Insurance groups for this model are typically very high, reflecting both the vehicle's value and performance capabilities.
Maintenance costs will be higher than a standard passenger car, particularly regarding tyres and brakes, which are subject to significant stress. An estimated annual budget should account for premium fuel, high insurance premiums, and the more frequent servicing intervals required for high-performance machinery.
Specifically inspect the rear tyres and the suspension setup; the 2024 MOT failure noted both rear tyres were worn unevenly and below the 1.6mm legal limit. This could indicate a need for an alignment check or may point to wear in the suspension components.
Check the track rod ends, as the 2022 MOT recorded slight play in the nearside front ball joint. While this was passed, it is worth verifying that the steering feels precise and that no further play has developed. Finally, ensure the emissions system has been thoroughly checked following the 2024 test results.
This 2009 Nissan GT-R, finished in black, has covered 62,460 miles since its first registration in June 2009. The MOT history shows a mostly clean record, though it has encountered specific issues regarding emissions and tyre wear in recent years. With mileage significantly lower than many high-performance examples of this age, it presents an interesting proposition for a buyer.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Nissan GT-R to provide a statistical benchmark.
