2016 Nissan X-Trail 1.6L Diesel · FM65 ARU

The 2016 Nissan X-Trail presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 19 February 2026 at 72,207 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of clean MOT outcomes. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the history, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test regime. Annual mileage sits close to typical expectations for a ten-year-old vehicle. The records show 52,936 miles at the 25 January 2022 test, rising to 61,897 by 17 January 2023, 65,389 by 3 February 2024, 69,500 by 20 February 2025, and 72,207 by February 2026. That equates to roughly 3,000 to 4,000 miles per year across the logged period, well below the 7,221-mile average implied by age. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of rapid accumulation or standing gaps, though only five annual tests exist. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low annual use. Vehicles covering short distances often develop corrosion on structural members and exhaust components through infrequent warming cycles. The absence of advisories means the tester found no such issues, but MOT checks do not strip components. Verify the odometer against service stamps and confirm underbody structural integrity in person. The clean history suggests conscientious prior ownership, yet low mileage can mask perished rubber mounts or binding calipers that a road test would expose.
