2013 Nissan X-Trail 2.0L Diesel · AV12 AAV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a history of clean pass results. The most recent test conducted on 13 August 2025 at 104,230 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety and emissions standards. This follows a successful pass in August 2024, suggesting that the current owner is proactively addressing any issues that led to the failure earlier that same year. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. There is a notable gap between September 2021 and August 2023, where the vehicle covered roughly 18,000 miles over two years, suggesting a period of higher usage. However, the mileage has since returned to a steady rate, with approximately 9,000 miles recorded between the 2024 and 2025 tests. This consistent level of use generally prevents the degradation of rubber components and brake seals that often occurs with long periods of standing. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension system and the underbody, as these are common points of failure on an X-Trail of this age. While the MOT record shows no recurring advisories, the tester should check for worn control arm bushes, coil spring corrosion, and exhaust mounting bracket integrity. Given the failure in August 2024, a close look at the brake discs and calipers for thinning or binding is prudent to ensure the repairs made were thorough rather than a temporary fix.
