2017 Nissan NV200 Electric · CJ17 RHZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass on 17 April 2026 at 42,905 miles. The maintenance trend shows fluctuating stability, characterized by significant failures in safety-critical systems followed by successful repairs. While the most recent test only identified minor tyre-related advisories, the previous history reveals a pattern of reactive maintenance regarding complex electrical and structural suspension components. This suggests that major faults are often addressed only when prompted by an MOT failure rather than through a preventative service schedule. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old van, averaging approximately 4,700 miles per year. There is a visible gap in usage between January 2023 and April 2024, where the vehicle covered only 3,144 miles. Such low annual mileage often results in less wear on mechanical components, but it also contributes to the degradation of rubber-based parts. The 2026 advisory regarding cracking and perishing on the rear tyres is a direct consequence of the vehicle sitting for extended periods rather than high mileage driven. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking systems. The 2024 failure due to a fractured nearside rear leaf spring indicates high stress on the rear axle assembly, which should be checked for further cracks or uneven wear. Furthermore, the 2025 failure involving ABS wiring damage and electronic stability control faults requires a diagnostic scan to ensure the wiring harness is properly secured and no intermittent electrical faults remain. Given the low mileage, the condition of the tyres, bushes, and wiper blades is vital, as age-related decay is already evident despite the low tread depth.
