2017 Nissan Serena 2.0L Petrol · KF67 AEC

The vehicle remains currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows the first sign of consumable wear requiring attention. The most recent test conducted on 15 May 2025 at 76,633 miles resulted in an advisory for front brake pads wearing thin. While the vehicle passed without major defects, this advisory indicates that the braking system is reaching the end of its service interval and requires immediate attention to prevent future failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year. Between the 27 May 2024 test at 74,454 miles and the May 2025 test, the car covered 2,179 miles. This low annual accumulation suggests the vehicle has been used sparingly or has experienced long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for rubber components and seals but can sometimes lead to minor corrosion if not driven. A buyer should prioritize the front braking system during a physical inspection, checking the remaining life of the pads and the condition of the discs for scoring or thinning. Given the age of the Serena, the inspector should also scrutinise the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as these components degrade over time regardless of low mileage. Checking the chassis for structural corrosion is also necessary, as the MOT record does not provide a history of rust-related advisories to date.
