2021 Nissan Leaf Electricity · FJ71 AWO

The 2021 Nissan Leaf presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 7 October 2025 at 2,636 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the prior 24 September 2024 pass at 2,457 miles. The maintenance trend shows no deterioration across the two available entries, with zero advisories or failures logged in either examination. The recorded mileage reflects exceptionally light use for a five-year-old vehicle. Between September 2024 and October 2025 the car covered only 179 miles, averaging roughly 527 miles per year since registration. Such low accumulation points to infrequent operation or extended standing periods rather than active daily driving. The DVSA history is sparse, containing just two tests with no faults, which limits longitudinal insight but confirms no neglect surfaced at either checkpoint. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of components prone to degradation through disuse rather than wear. Long stationary intervals encourage tyre flat-spotting, seized brake calipers, and corrosion on brake discs, none of which the short test entries would necessarily expose under minimal road load. The 12-volt auxiliary battery and coolant systems in electric drivetrains also suffer from low-cycle operation and warrant a health check. Suspension bushes, steering joints, and structural underbody points should be visually assessed for rust or perishing rubber despite the clean MOT record. The absence of advisories at 2,457 and 2,636 miles suggests competent storage, yet the verified data covers under 200 miles of recent running and cannot substitute for a physical examination before purchase.
