Our Verdict
Exercise caution due to the exceptionall
The primary consideration for this vehicle is its mileage of 283,101. Prospective buyers should request comprehensive service records to verify how the engine and drivetrain have been managed over such a distance. Negotiate the price based on the inevitable wear and tear associated with a high-mileage commercial vehicle.
Check for any evidence of oil leaks or excessive smoke from the 2.3L diesel engine. Ensure that the clutch and gearbox operate smoothly, as these components are under significant stress in high-mileage vans.
As a 2.3L diesel, fuel economy will be typical for a large van of this era, though efficiency may vary given the vehicle's age and mileage. Tax and insurance will fall into standard commercial categories for the NV400.
Annual running costs are likely to be higher than average due to the increased probability of component failure. Maintenance costs will be a key variable given the vehicle's current mileage.
Focus on the headlamps, as a failure for 'aim too low' was recorded in January 2025. While this was a minor issue, it indicates a need for correct alignment. Inspect the chassis and suspension for wear, as the vehicle has covered nearly 300,000 miles.
Check the brakes and tyres thoroughly. Although the December 2025 MOT was clean, the high mileage means consumables will require frequent replacement to maintain safety standards.
This 2013 black Nissan NV400 has covered 283,101 miles. The MOT history shows five tests recorded since 2022, with only one failure in January 2025 regarding headlamp aim. It passed its most recent test in December 2025 without any recorded defects.
No aggregate reliability data is available for the Nissan NV400 in this dataset.
