2018 Nissan Cabstar 3.0L Diesel · BW67 ONX

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status, showing a stable maintenance trend despite high usage. The most recent MOT test on 27 January 2025 at 168,754 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, following a failure just five days prior at the same mileage. This suggests that the owner is proactive in addressing immediate testing failures to ensure compliance, although the repeated failure-pass pattern indicates that faults are rectified only at the inspection deadline. The mileage accumulation is significantly high for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 21,000 miles per annum. Between the January 2023 and January 2024 tests, the vehicle covered 20,157 miles, and another 14,863 miles were logged in the following year. This consistent high-mileage pattern points to heavy commercial use, which typically accelerates the wear on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking systems. The lack of advisories across all recorded tests suggests that components are either being replaced before failure or the vehicle has benefited from favorable road conditions. A buyer should prioritise a thorough physical inspection of the components most susceptible to high-duty cycle cycles. Given the mileage, close attention must be paid to the structural integrity of the chassis for signs of corrosion or stress fractures, as commercial vans often operate under heavy heavy loads. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of fatigue, and check the brake system for binding calipers or thin discs. While the MOT record is clean of recorded defects, the high mileage means that mechanical components like the clutch and turbo may be nearing the end of their typical service life.
