AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in November 2025. However, the maintenance trend shows a period of recent instability evidenced by a significant failure just one day prior to that pass. While the defects were rectified immediately, the presence of multiple critical failures across all four tyres and a structural suspension component suggests a reactive approach to vehicle upkeep rather than a preventative maintenance schedule. The Navara has covered 71,467 miles over five years, averaging approximately 14,300 miles per annum. This represents higher-than-average usage for a modern vehicle, suggesting consistent operation in a commercial or heavy utility capacity. There is a notable gap of 14,619 miles between the December 2024 and November 2025 tests, which confirms the high annual mileage rate. This rapid accumulation places higher demands on wear-and-tear components, reflected in the late 2025Test results. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension geometry, as the fracture of the offside rear coil spring indicates that the components may be under significant stress. Given that all four tyres were flagged for being below the legal tread limit in late 2025, it is essential to verify the current remaining life and check for uneven wear patterns which could indicate alignment issues. Additionally, the braking system and drivetrain should be examined for wear to ensure the high-mileage usage has not caused accelerated degradation of the mechanical assemblies.

Our Verdict

Proceed with caution due to a recent significant MOT failure involving multiple tyres and suspension components. While the most recent test was a pass, the 2025 failure suggests a period of heavy use or deferred maintenance.

Given the high mileage for a five-year-old vehicle, you should verify the service history to ensure the 2.3L diesel engine has received regular oil changes. The recent MOT failure in late 2025 indicates that tyres and suspension components may have been run to their limits; check that all four tyres are currently of a matching brand and have healthy tread depth.

Negotiate based on the recent maintenance required to clear the November 2025 failure. Ask for specific evidence that the offside rear coil spring was replaced with an appropriate part and that the registration plate lamp was repaired. Because this Navara has been driven much more than the average example, a thorough check of the drivetrain and suspension bushings is essential.

As a 2299cc diesel, this Navara falls into a higher tax and insurance bracket typical for large pickups. Fuel economy will depend heavily on load and driving style, but you should budget for the higher consumption associated with Euro 6ci diesel engines in heavy vehicles.

Maintenance costs for this model can be higher than a standard car, particularly regarding tyres and suspension components, which were highlighted in the recent MOT history. Expect annual running costs to be substantial, covering diesel, higher insurance groups, and the inevitable wear-and-tear items common to high-mileage utility vehicles.

Focus your inspection on the suspension and tyres. The November 2025 MOT failure specifically cited a fractured offside rear coil spring and tread depth issues on all four tyres. Ensure the spring replacement was documented and that there are no signs of uneven tyre wear which could indicate alignment issues.

Additionally, check the lighting system, specifically the rear registration plate lamp which was previously noted as inoperative. Given the model's aggregate data shows coil springs and brake discs as common failure points, inspect the underside of the vehicle for signs of excessive play in the suspension or thinning brake components.

This 2021 Nissan Navara (FY21ABO) has covered 71,467 miles since its first registration in May 2021, which is significantly higher than the model average of 9,376 miles per year. The MOT history shows a clean record through 2023 and 2024, but a notable failure in November 2025 involving four tyres and a fractured coil spring. The vehicle is currently recorded as having passed its most recent test with no defects.

Aggregate data for this model shows a 77.3% MOT pass rate, with coil springs and brake discs being common reasons for failure.
