2011 Nissan Pathfinder 2.5L Diesel · DV61 LLE

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes over the last five years. The most recent test on 20 May 2026 at 161,544 miles resulted in no recorded defects, maintaining a stable trend of mechanical compliance. This streak suggests that the previous owners have proactively addressed potential wear and tear issues before they could result in MOT failures or significant advisories. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 10,770 miles per year. Between July 2022 and May 2026, the Pathfinder covered 36,945 miles, showing a steady rate of use without long periods of neglect or sudden excessive strain. The interval between 139,817 miles in June 2024 and 151,190 miles in May 2025 indicates regular operation, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and preventing the buildup of corrosion in moving components. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer must focus their physical inspection on components prone to fatigue in heavy SUVs like the Pathfinder at over 160,000 miles. While the records do not flag faults, the high mileage necessitates a thorough check of the suspension bushes, control arms, and coil springs for signs of tearing or sagging. Also inspect the chassis for structural corrosion, particularly along the sills and mounting points, as MOT tests often only catch surface-level rust until it reaches a critical threshold of structural integrity.
