2016 Nissan X-Trail 1.6L Diesel · EY16 AXJ

The 2016 Nissan X-Trail presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 23 February 2026 at 97,709 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the four preceding annual tests from March 2023 to March 2025 likewise returned clean passes. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the chain, which indicates the previous keeper addressed wear before it reached test-failure threshold. Mileage has accumulated at a near-typical rate for a ten-year-old vehicle. The record shows 68,593 miles in March 2023, rising to 79,562 by March 2024, 89,452 by March 2025, and 97,709 by February 2026. That equates to roughly 9,000 to 10,000 miles per year with no sudden jumps or dormant gaps. The clean sheet across all entries suggests disciplined servicing rather than deferred consumable replacement. A minor anomaly exists in the March 2023 record, where the vehicle failed on 6 March at 68,591 miles yet passed the same day at 68,593 miles with no defects listed. This points to an administrative re-test following correction of a non-mechanical entry error rather than a genuine fault. The buyer should still confirm with the selling garage that no suppressed advisory existed. Given the absence of flagged suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues, the buyer's in-person check should focus on standard consumables not captured by MOT: tyre sidewall condition, wiper blade wear, and fluid levels. The structural integrity and drivetrain show no recorded concern, so a routine pre-purchase inspection will suffice rather than a full mechanical strip-down.
