2017 Nissan Leaf Electricity · GY17 FDX

The most recent MOT on 2026-04-10 showed tyre perishing on both rear tyres and brake disc wear on front and rear. These issues match a long-standing pattern seen in previous MOTs dating back to 2022. Tyre perishing was first noted in 2022, with rear tyres consistently showing minor damage or cracking in every subsequent inspection. Brake disc wear has been recorded since 2022, with the 2026 MOT confirming continued minor pitting or scoring. The trend indicates stable conditions rather than worsening. No new or more severe defects have emerged in recent years. The same issues reappear but remain within the "not seriously weakened" category, suggesting they are managed through regular maintenance. However, the recurring nature of tyre perishing and brake disc wear highlights ongoing wear on these components. The vehicle’s mileage of 38,689 miles over nine years equates to roughly 4,299 miles per year, which is very low for its age. This could mean lighter use or prolonged periods of inactivity, both of which may accelerate rubber component aging.
