2004 Nissan D22 2.5L Diesel · CX54 AFE

The most recent MOT entry for this 2004 Nissan D22 dates to 14 December 2021 at 106,675 miles, where the vehicle first failed and then passed on the same day with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend cannot be judged as stable, worsening, or improving because only a single calendar date carries both outcomes and no advisories or faults appear in the data. The back-to-back failure and pass with a clean sheet suggests the initial rejection was administrative or rectified immediately at the test centre. The recorded mileage of 106,675 over roughly 22 years equates to about 4,849 miles per year, which is low for a working-grade D22 pickup. The entire MOT history supplied shows just one test date, 14 December 2021, with no earlier or later entries provided. A four-to-five year gap to the current date of 8 July 2026 means the vehicle has no evidenced test cover for the recent period, and the sparse record gives no view of consumable wear or standing-time corrosion that low use often hides. A buyer should physically inspect the chassis rails, subframes, and suspension mounting points for structural rust, as the D22 is prone to underbody corrosion where road salt sits. The tester logged no advisories on the December 2021 pass, but the absence of records before and since leaves brake discs, calipers, and suspension bushes unverified for the intervening years. Given the same-day fail-pass with no defects noted, confirm with the DVSA the failure reason before purchase. Prior to any road use, a fresh MOT and a workshop check of tyres, exhaust emissions, and steering joints are required, since the record offers no assurance of condition beyond late 2021.
