2015 Nissan Leaf Electricity · GD64 LHB

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT in March 2026 at 133,711 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows significant improvement following a failure in early 2024. While the history indicates periods of mechanical neglect, the two most recent tests suggest that the current or previous owner addressed identified faults and is maintaining the vehicle in a passing state. At 133,711 miles over eleven years, this Nissan Leaf has covered a high annual average of approximately 12,156 miles per year. The record shows consistent usage, with a notable jump of 18,444 miles between January 2024 and January 2025, and another 7,033 miles between January 2025 and March 2026. This high mileage profile places accelerated stress on suspension components, rubber bushings, and braking hardware compared to lower-mileage examples. A physical inspection must focus heavily on the front suspension due to a history of recurring failures. The 2023 test at 90,014 miles noted play in both front lower arm ball joints, which progressed to a critical failure in January 2024 at 108,232 miles. Although the vehicle passed since, the buyer should check for remaining lateral play in the ball joints or steering linkage to ensure the repairs were thorough. The previously recorded offside road wheel distortion noted in 2023 also warrants a check to ensure no vibration or uneven tyre wear persists during high-speed driving. Tyre condition and wheel alignment require close scrutiny, as the 2024 failure was triggered by both structural cord damage and edge wear on the nearside front. Given the high mileage and the previous suspension issues, the buyer should inspect for signs of premature bushing wear or leaking shock absorbers. The current record is clean, but the historical data suggests the front-end assembly is the primary area of concern for this specific vehicle.
