Our Verdict
This Nissan X-Trail is a reasonable opti
When inspecting this vehicle, focus on the tyre and braking history. The 2024 MOT records multiple failures related to worn tyres (both front and offside rear) and pitted front brake discs. Ensure that the current tyres have ample tread and that the brake discs and pads appear to be in good condition, as these were recent points of failure.
Verify the service history to see if the 1.6L diesel engine has received regular oil changes, which is critical for this model. Given the 2024 failure regarding a defective central rear seat belt, check all seat belt retracting mechanisms in both the front and rear rows to ensure they operate smoothly and lock correctly.
The 1598cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency, typically offering decent fuel economy for a mid-sized SUV. You should check the specific tax band for this 2017 model, as diesel rates can vary based on CO2 emissions.
Insurance groups for the X-Trail vary depending on trim level, so obtain a quote before purchasing. Maintenance costs will likely be influenced by the wear-and-tear items seen in the MOT history, such as tyres, brake discs, and suspension components like anti-roll bar linkages.
A key area for inspection is the suspension and steering components. The 2023 MOT recorded a deteriorated offside front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover, so listen for any knocking or clunking sounds when driving over uneven surfaces.
Additionally, inspect the tyres thoroughly. The 2024 records show a tendency for tyres to wear on the inner edges, which can sometimes indicate an alignment issue. Check the brake discs for any signs of pitting or scoring, as this was a repeated issue in the 2023 and 2024 tests.
This 2017 grey Nissan X-Trail has covered 55,451 miles as of its September 2025 MOT, which is slightly above the model average of 8,095 miles per year. The MOT history shows a pattern of tyre and brake component issues in 2023 and 2024, though the 2025 test indicates these specific items were addressed. The vehicle has undergone four MOT tests since its first registration in July 2017.
Aggregate data for this model shows an 80.2% MOT pass rate, with common failure points including suspension arms, corrosion, and tyres.
