2021 Nissan Leaf Electric · BL71 JKX

This Nissan Leaf presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT test on 9 October 2025 at 25,931 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a similarly clean result from the 22 November 2024 test, indicating a vehicle that has maintained a high standard of mechanical integrity over its last two official inspections. The mileage is notably low for a five year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,186 miles per year. Between November 2024 and October 2025, the car covered 6,582 miles. This consistent, low-intensity usage suggests the vehicle has avoided the heavy wear typically associated with high-mileage commuters, and the lack of any advisories across both tests points to a disciplined approach to basic upkeep. Despite the clean record, the low mileage and electric drivetrain necessitate specific physical checks. Brake calipers and discs on low-mileage EVs are prone to binding or surface corrosion due to infrequent heavy use and regenerative braking. A buyer should verify that the brakes operate freely and that the tyres show no signs of flat-spotting or perishing from periods of inactivity. The absence of flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion in the DVSA data is encouraging. However, an inspection of the 12V auxiliary battery is advised, as these often degrade in low-mileage vehicles. Given the lack of historical faults, the primary focus should remain on consumables and the health of the high-voltage battery system.
