2004 Nissan Almera 1.5L Petrol · DE04 AXM

The 2004 Nissan Almera shows a stable maintenance trend with a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 17 January 2022 at 147,562 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle met statutory requirements at that time. Buyers should note this test is over four years old relative to today's date of 8 July 2026, so the current condition is unverified by any recent MOT evidence. The recorded mileage of 147,562 at the January 2022 test equates to an average of roughly 6,707 miles per year across the vehicle's 22-year life, which is typical for a car of this age. The single MOT entry provides no basis to identify rapid accumulation or prolonged standing periods. The sparse history offers little insight into owner care patterns beyond the fact that the car passed without advisories at its last examination. Given the absence of any flagged faults in the record, a buyer cannot rely on historical advisories to target known weak points. The age and mileage nonetheless dictate a physical inspection of consumable and structural items. We would expect to assess suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, and exhaust corrosion, as these commonly degrade on a two-decade-old vehicle regardless of a past clean test. Prospective purchasers should commission an independent inspection before sale. The four-year gap since the last MOT means tyres, wiper blades, and fluid condition may have deteriorated through disuse. Structural integrity around sills and subframes warrants close checking for rust given the Almera's vintage.
