2021 Nissan NV250 Acenta DCI 1.5L Diesel · HJ71 YBA

The vehicle most recently passed its MOT on 19 January 2026. Based on the provided DVSA records, the overall maintenance trend appears highly stable. While the history notes previous failures, the absence of recorded defects or advisories across multiple test cycles suggests that any issues were either minor or rectified immediately, leaving the vehicle with a clean bill of health regarding its structural integrity and safety components. With a recorded mileage of 33,385 miles over approximately five years, the vehicle has averaged roughly 6,677 miles per year. This represents a typical usage profile for a light commercial vehicle of this age. This moderate mileage suggests that the drivetrain, suspension bushes, and engine components have not been subjected to excessive wear, nor has the vehicle suffered from the degradation typically associated with prolonged periods of standing or extreme low-mileage use. Given the absence of specific MOT advisories, the buyer should focus on age-related preventative maintenance. It is essential to inspect the tyre sidewalls for signs of perishing or ozone cracking, as tyres can degrade over time even if the tread depth remains legal. The brake discs should be examined for surface corrosion or pitting, and a test drive should be used to ensure there is no brake shudder or evidence of binding calipers, which can occur if the vehicle has spent significant time stationary. Particular attention should be paid to the service history to verify that fluid changes have been performed on a calendar basis rather than solely by mileage. Engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid degrade over time and require periodic replacement to prevent internal corrosion and maintain hydraulic efficiency. Additionally, as the vehicle is now five years old, the health of the 12V starter battery should be verified, and the underbody should be inspected for any signs of surface corrosion on the chassis rails, which is a common point of concern for vehicles in this category.
