Our Verdict

A recommended purchase for those seeking

Given that the mileage is considerably higher than the model average, the primary focus should be on the battery's State of Health (SOH). Ensure you check the dashboard battery capacity bars or use an OBDII diagnostic tool to verify the remaining range.

Review the service history for any evidence of suspension work or wheel alignment, as the MOT history mentions a distorted road wheel in 2022. Use the high mileage as a negotiation point, as this vehicle has covered significantly more ground than the average 6,328 miles per year seen across the model range.

As an electric vehicle, this Leaf benefits from very low fuel costs compared to petrol or diesel equivalents and currently qualifies for the lowest VED tax band. Maintenance is generally simpler than internal combustion engines, though the aggregate data suggests tyres and suspension components are common wear items.

Typical annual costs will be dominated by insurance and tyre replacement. Based on the model's profile, you can expect a lower-than-average monthly spend on energy, though costs will vary depending on whether you charge via a home tariff or public infrastructure.

Pay close attention to the tyres and wheel alignment. The December 2024 MOT noted that both front tyres were worn close to the legal limit, and a February 2022 test highlighted a distorted offside front inner road wheel; ensure these have been correctly rectified and that the tyres are not wearing unevenly.

Additionally, inspect the suspension arms. Aggregate data for the Nissan Leaf identifies suspension arms as a top MOT failure reason, so any knocking or instability during a test drive should be investigated. Finally, check the seat belt buckles for secure operation, as these are also listed as a common failure point for this model.

This white 2017 Nissan Leaf has completed five MOT tests without a single failure. While the recent February 2026 test was clean, previous records show advisories for tyre wear and a distorted wheel. With a current mileage of 81,953, this vehicle has been used more extensively than the typical Leaf of this age.

The Nissan Leaf has a respectable average MOT pass rate of 85.3%, with common vulnerabilities appearing in the tyres and suspension arms.
