1987 Nissan Bluebird 1.8L Petrol · D653 DAB

The 1987 Nissan Bluebird presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent DVSA test on 15 August 2025 at 73,351 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the clean result from the 28 October 2022 test at 73,240 miles. No advisories or failures appear across the available history, indicating the vehicle has not shown worsening mechanical condition in the documented period. The recorded mileage reflects exceptionally light use for a 39 year old vehicle. Between the October 2022 test at 73,240 miles and the August 2025 test at 73,351 miles, the odometer advanced only 111 miles across nearly three years, an average below 40 miles per year. Over its life the car shows roughly 1,881 miles per annum. The sparse two entry record gives limited visibility, yet the near static mileage suggests prolonged storage rather than active wear cycles. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points beneath the chassis and sills, as MOT exemption from advisories does not preclude age related rust on a vehicle of this era. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers may have degraded through inactivity even though the tester logged no binding or excessive wear. Given the low turnover of miles, check for perished rubber components, flat spotted tyres from standing, and stale fluid in the brake and cooling systems. The clean history implies a previous owner who avoided neglect of testable items, but static storage carries its own risks absent from the official record.
