2017 Nissan Navara 2.3L Diesel · ELL 120N

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy state, passing its most recent inspection in January 2026 at 78,356 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the minor inoperative nearside rear registration plate lamp noted in the latest test indicates a lapse in basic electrical upkeep. Prior to the defect in 2024, the vehicle maintained a clean record, suggesting that the primary mechanical components have remained sound throughout the majority of its life. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year. There is a steady accumulation of mileage between tests, such as the jump from 30,948 miles in 2022 to 56,371 miles in 2024, followed by a 13,193-mile interval between early 2024 and 2025. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has been driven consistently, which generally benefits mechanical seals and rubber components that can degrade during long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and chassis integrity. The 2024 test specifically flagged a corroded brake pipe covered in grease, which is a common sign of an attempt to hide rust from the tester. It is essential to verify that the brake lines have been cleaned or replaced and are free of further structural corrosion. Additionally, the nearside front tyre wear noted in 2024 suggests a potential alignment issue or a worn suspension bush, which warrants a check of the front arms and steering components to ensure uneven wear has not returned.
