2005 Nissan Cabstar 3.0L Diesel · FN05 YPZ

The 2005 Nissan Cabstar shows a current roadworthy status following its most recent test on 27 June 2022, where it passed at 151,864 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend appears stable on paper, though the history is sparse and the most recent test sits over four years behind today's date of 8 July 2026, leaving a long unverified period off the public record. The odometer stood at 151,852 miles on 28 May 2022 and rose only twelve miles to 151,864 by the 27 June 2022 pass, giving a near-static reading across the two tests. Against a 21-year lifespan and an average of roughly 7,232 miles per year, the recorded mileage is typical for age, but the gap between the 2022 test and now means roughly four years of use is undocumented. The May 2022 failure at 151,852 miles listed no defects, suggesting an administrative or presentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, and the vehicle cleared on retest weeks later. A buyer should commission a fresh MOT-style inspection before purchase, prioritising structural integrity, suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers, and exhaust emissions given the age and unknown intervening use. The clean 2022 record gives no recurring advisories to track, yet a fourteen-year-old cab chassis left untested since 2022 may hide corrosion or consumable wear such as tyres and wiper blades that the earlier tester never flagged. Given the 151,864-mile figure has not moved in the official data since mid-2022, confirm with the seller whether the vehicle has been laid up, used off-road, or simply skipped annual testing. Standing time breeds seized brakes and perished rubbers; a physical check of binding calipers and flat-spotted tyres is warranted before any money changes hands.
