2012 Nissan Navara 2.5L Diesel · CW08 JON

The 2012 Nissan Navara presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 June 2025 at 103,004 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests also passed cleanly. The only anomaly is a failed test on 15 June 2023 at 85,046 miles that was immediately re-tested and passed the same day with no defects noted, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage averages around 7,357 miles, which is typical for a 14-year-old vehicle of this type. The records show steady accumulation: 76,796 miles in June 2022, 85,046 miles in June 2023, 95,232 miles in June 2024, and 103,004 miles in June 2025. No rapid jumps or unexplained gaps appear between tests, and the clean pass history across all dated entries suggests the previous keeper kept the pickup to a basic annual maintenance cycle without deferred work surfacing at the test bay. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of chassis and suspension components before purchase. Navara models of this D22/D40 era are prone to rear axle and chassis leg corrosion, and the MOT record shows no advisories only because the tester logged none, not because the structure was formally cleared of rust. Examine the rear spring hangers, brake lines, and subframe for scaling or perforation. Check the front suspension bushes and brake disc wear in person despite the clean record. The same-day fail and pass in June 2023 with no defects listed offers no clue to what triggered the rejection, so confirm the VIN and test certificate match and listen for drivetrain vibration from the propshaft or differential on a road trial.
