2009 Nissan Serena 2.0L Petrol · CU59 XVB

The 2009 Nissan Serena presents a stable and unblemished roadworthiness record, culminating in a clean pass on 10 April 2026 at 80,637 miles. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration, with zero defects recorded across the three available tests. This indicates the vehicle currently meets all required safety and emissions standards without any immediate mechanical or structural concerns flagged by the tester. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 4,743 miles per year. The record reveals a significant gap in usage between February 2024 and May 2025, during which the Serena covered only 60 miles over a 15-month period. A more consistent usage pattern resumed thereafter, with the odometer climbing 8,708 miles between the May 2025 test and the most recent April 2026 test. Such sporadic use suggests the vehicle may have spent extended periods stationary, which warrants specific attention to components susceptible to deterioration from standing. Given the extended period of low mileage and potential stationary storage, a physical inspection must focus on components prone to degradation from lack of use rather than high mileage wear. Examine the tyres thoroughly for sidewall cracking and flat spots, as rubber perishes when a vehicle sits stationary for long durations. Inspect the brake discs and calipers for surface corrosion, which can cause binding or reduced braking efficiency after prolonged inactivity. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, and scrutinise the underbody and sills for structural rust, a common issue on older people carriers that can compromise structural integrity if left untreated.
