2018 Nissan Leaf Electric · LO18 PFJ

The vehicle's current roadworthiness status appears stable following a successful MOT on 27 June 2025 at 84,966 miles. The inspection history shows a recurring pattern of failures immediately followed by passes on the same date, specifically in June 2023 and June 2025. While the most recent test recorded no defects, these repeated failures suggest the vehicle occasionally presents with minor non-compliance issues that are rectified quickly, likely during the test process itself. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical usage pattern for an eight-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 10,621 miles per year, moving from 54,490 miles in June 2023 to 69,783 miles in July 2024, and finally reaching 84,966 miles by June 2025. This steady progression indicates regular road use rather than long periods of inactivity or excessive high-speed motorway commuting. Because the MOT record shows no specific mechanical defects or advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion, there are no immediate red flags in the official data. However, the pattern of failing and passing on the same day warrants a physical inspection of consumables. A buyer should check the condition of the tyres, wiper blades, and brake pads to ensure the vehicle is being maintained beyond the minimum legal requirements. Given the mileage and age, a thorough check of the chassis for underbody corrosion and an inspection of the suspension components is advised. While the electronic records show a clean pass in the most recent test, the recurring failures suggest the vehicle may occasionally fall just short of compliance on minor items. Verifying the service history alongside the MOT record will confirm if these minor failures relate to simple wear and tear or a lack of proactive maintenance.
