Our Verdict
Recommended for buyers seeking a low-mil
Prioritise checking the battery's State of Health (SOH) via the dashboard or a diagnostic tool, as this is the most critical factor for a used electric vehicle. Review the service history to ensure that any manufacturer software updates have been applied.
Given the repeated MOT advisories regarding the rear tyres, ask the seller if a wheel alignment has been carried out or if new tyres have been fitted since December 2025. This is a key point for negotiation if the tyres are still near the legal limit.
As an electric vehicle, this Leaf offers significantly lower fuel costs than internal combustion alternatives, depending on the user's electricity tariff. It benefits from the current zero-rate vehicle excise duty (VED) for electric cars and typically falls into a moderate insurance group.
Maintenance costs are generally lower due to the lack of oil changes and fewer moving engine parts. However, the aggregate data suggests tyre replacement is a frequent cost for this model. Estimated annual running costs, including insurance, electricity, and basic maintenance, are approximately £700-£1,100.
Carefully inspect the rear tyres for uneven wear or 'scrubbing' on the edges, as this was specifically noted in the 2024 and 2025 MOT records. If the wear is still present, it may indicate a tracking or alignment issue that needs correction.
Additionally, check the operation of the seat belt buckles and inspect the suspension arms for any signs of wear or damage, as these are identified as top failure reasons for the Nissan Leaf in aggregate MOT data.
This grey 2020 Nissan Leaf has a recorded mileage of 18,764 miles as of its last MOT in December 2025, which is significantly lower than the model average. It has passed all three of its MOT tests since registration. The history is marked by repeated advisories regarding rear tyre wear and scrubbing edges over the last two years.
The Nissan Leaf has an average MOT pass rate of 85.3%, with tyres being the most common cause of failure across the model range.
