2021 NIU Nqi GTS PRO Electric · GD70 JVG

This NIU NQi GTS PRO passed its most recent MOT test on January 13, 2024, with no defects recorded at just 6,753 miles. The absence of advisories or failings suggests the vehicle has not encountered any major mechanical or structural issues during its limited usage. However, the test date is now over two years out of date, which is concerning given the vehicle’s age and the typical wear expected at this mileage. A vehicle of this age should ideally undergo an MOT every 12 months, and the current gap exceeds this recommendation by a significant margin. The lack of any recorded issues does not negate the need for a thorough inspection, particularly in areas prone to wear or neglect over time. The recorded mileage of 6,753 miles over approximately five years—roughly 1,351 miles annually—is exceptionally low for a vehicle of this age. Such minimal usage may indicate the car has spent extended periods stationary, which can accelerate deterioration in components like tyres, suspension bushes, and battery health. There are no intermediate MOT records to assess whether the vehicle was ever driven regularly or if this low mileage is a consistent pattern. Without further data, it is impossible to confirm whether the car has been stored properly or if critical fluids (such as coolant, brake fluid, or gearbox oil) have been maintained. The absence of any mileage progression between tests also raises questions about whether the vehicle has been driven at all since January 2024. Given the sparse MOT history, a prospective buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear items that are not always covered by an MOT. Tyres, despite passing the tread test in 2024, may now require closer examination for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment or suspension issues. The suspension bushes and coil springs, while not explicitly tested in the MOT, should be checked for cracking or excessive play, especially if the car has been stationary for prolonged periods. The brakes, though not flagged in the last test, warrant scrutiny for binding calipers, worn pads, or corrosion on the discs—particularly if the vehicle has been exposed to moisture. Structural components, such as the subframe and wheel arches, should be inspected for corrosion, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from rust when left unused. Finally, the battery and electrical system should be tested, as prolonged inactivity can lead to parasitic drain or a weakened alternator.
