2014 Nissan X-Trail 1.6L Diesel · BX64 LCW

The vehicle’s most recent MOT test on 2026-02-04 confirms it passed without defects at 132,455 miles, though it was previously failed on 2026-02-03 at 132,377 miles—an unusual but isolated anomaly given no recorded issues in either instance. The preceding tests in January 2025 and February 2024 also show clean passes with no advisories or defects, suggesting a stable maintenance record over the past two years. However, the double-testing in February 2026—just one week apart—indicates the tester may have overlooked a minor but recurring issue, or the vehicle was retested after a quick repair. No structural or safety-critical failures appear in the record, but the lack of advisories in earlier tests could imply some wear items (e.g., suspension bushes, brake pads) were not formally assessed. The mileage progression shows consistent usage, averaging around 11,000 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. There are no prolonged gaps or rapid spikes in mileage between tests, though the 17,950-mile jump between the January 2025 and February 2024 tests is slightly higher than the average. This suggests the vehicle was driven regularly without extended periods of disuse, which could mitigate some wear concerns. The absence of mileage discrepancies between passed and failed tests (e.g., identical readings in January 2025) further supports that the vehicle was likely in service between tests, though the February 2026 retest is unusual. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of the suspension components, particularly the rear bushes and coil springs, as these often fail without formal MOT advisories. The double-testing in February 2026 hints at potential brake or steering system wear, so binding calipers, uneven brake pad thickness, or excessive disc wear should be checked. Structural corrosion—common in this model—must be examined at wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, as hidden rust can compromise structural integrity. Finally, the exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or excessive corrosion, as emissions-related failures are not recorded in this history but can develop silently.
