2006 Nissan Pathfinder 2.5L Diesel · FM06 FYV

The 2006 Nissan Pathfinder presents a clean roadworthiness status as of its most recent test on 21 July 2024 at 180,601 miles, where it passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable across the available history, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. A failed test on the same date with no defects logged indicates an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical concern, and the vehicle was subsequently certified roadworthy the same day. Recorded mileage shows typical use for a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,030 miles per year. The odometer advanced from 139,901 miles at the June 2022 pass to 145,377 miles at the June 2023 failure, then 145,811 miles at the July 2023 pass, before jumping to 180,601 miles by July 2024. This reflects a low-mileage period followed by roughly 35,000 miles in the final year. The DVSA data is sparse, with only five entries and no recorded defects, so the record offers limited insight into component condition. Given the absence of flagged defects, a buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion, particularly on chassis rails and suspension mounting points common to ageing Japanese 4x4s. The tester noted no worn suspension bushes, coil springs, or binding calipers, but at 180,601 miles the original dampers, brake discs, and exhaust emissions components warrant hands-on measurement. Previous owners appear to have maintained basic test compliance, though the twin 2024 entries suggest rushed or duplicated paperwork rather than neglect. Verify service history independently and inspect for underbody rust not captured by the MOT regime.
