Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the vehicle
Focus your attention on the chassis and suspension. The MOT history shows persistent advisories for front inner suspension arm pins and bushes across 2024 and 2025, which aligns with common failure points for this model. You should verify if these components have been replaced or if they are now nearing a critical failure point.
Negotiate based on the upcoming maintenance requirements. With the recent appearance of an oil leak and sub-frame corrosion in the July 2026 test, these items may require professional remediation soon to avoid future MOT failures. Ensure you review the service history to see how the vehicle has been managed given its high mileage.
The 1.6L diesel engine offers a balance of power and economy for a vehicle of this size, though fuel costs will vary based on usage. As a 2017 model, it falls into a standard diesel tax bracket for its age, and insurance groups are typical for a family SUV.
Maintenance costs are likely to increase due to the current mileage of 115,740. Expect higher spending on wear-and-tear items such as suspension bushings, brakes, and potential gasket replacements to address the noted oil leak.
A detailed inspection of the rear sub-frame is essential to assess the severity of the corrosion noted in the 2026 MOT. You should also have a mechanic identify the source of the engine oil leak mentioned in the most recent test to determine if it is a minor seep or a more serious leak.
Check the front suspension and tyres carefully. The MOT history reveals recurring advisories for suspension arm pins and bushes (NSF and OSF) and tyres worn close to the legal limit in 2025. Ensure the current tyres have sufficient tread and the suspension exhibits no excessive movement.
This silver 2017 Nissan X-Trail 1.6 diesel has recorded 115,740 miles, which is significantly above the model average. Although it has passed its last five MOT tests, the records show a pattern of suspension wear and more recent concerns regarding sub-frame corrosion and an engine oil leak.
This model has an average MOT pass rate of 80.2%, with suspension arms, corrosion, and tyres being the most frequent reasons for failure.
