2021 Nissan NV250 Acenta DCI 1.5L Diesel · BT71 FLF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test in November 2025 at 69,206 miles passed after an initial failure due to thin rear brake pads, a damaged windscreen, and a failed stop lamp. This pattern mirrors the results of the November 2024 test, suggesting that the previous owner only addressed mechanical defects when necessitated by an MOT failure deadline. The van has covered approximately 69,000 miles over five years, averaging more than 13,000 miles per annum. A significant burst of mileage accumulation occurred between the November 2024 test at 44,263 miles and the November 2025 test at 69,206 miles, representing 25,000 miles in just twelve months. This high rate of use places considerable stress on the drivetrain and suspension components compared to lower-mileage examples. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system, as the recurring advisory for thin rear brake pads in both 2024 and 2025 suggests a potential issue with caliper sticking or simply neglect of routine consumable wear. The 2024 failure regarding an offside front tyre worn on the edge also indicates a previous alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that should be checked for further wear. Given the high annual mileage, an inspection of the chassis for corrosion and the integrity of mounting points is essential to ensure the structural health of the vehicle remains uncompromised by heavy use.
