2015 Nissan Leaf Electricity · CV15 MKP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, passing its most recent inspection in May 2026 at 73,564 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable but concerning pattern regarding consumable wear, specifically concerning the tyres and braking system. While the car consistently passes tests, the persistent presence of tyre-related advisories across three consecutive years suggests a reactive maintenance approach where components are addressed only when they approach legal failure thresholds rather than through preventative replacement. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old electric vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 13,682 miles between May 2023 and May 2024, which represents a period of higher usage compared to the overall average. Since the May 2024 test, the vehicle has covered roughly 7,100 miles annually. This steady accumulation indicates the car is used regularly, which is generally beneficial for battery health despite the mechanical wear noted in the record. A buyer must prioritize inspecting the front suspension geometry and alignment. The MOT records from 2024, 2025, and 2026 all flag the nearside front tyre as being worn close to the limit with specific edge wear or feathering. This recurring fault indicates a persistent issue with worn suspension bushes or incorrect tracking alignment that will continue to prematurely degrade tyres if not rectified. The braking system also requires a thorough check following the failure in 2023 for low parking brake efficiency and the advisory for thin rear pads in 2024, ensuring the mechanical linkage is fully adjusted and the calipers are not binding.
