2021 Nissan Elgrand 3.5L Petrol · LW57 CKX

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 19 May 2025 at 83,353 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the car has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards. The mileage is high for a five year old vehicle, averaging over 16,000 miles per year. Interestingly, the odometer readings show a significant drop in usage recently. Between 21 March 2022 and 20 March 2023, the car covered 2,292 miles. However, from 20 March 2023 to 19 May 2025, it covered only 662 miles. This indicates the vehicle has been largely stationary for the last two years, which presents different risks than high-mileage wear. The absence of recorded defects across multiple tests is positive, though the failure on 15 April 2024 is an anomaly since no specific defects were listed for that date. A buyer should investigate why the vehicle failed that test and how it was rectified. Because the car has sat idle for a prolonged period, a physical inspection should prioritise the health of the battery, the condition of the tyres for flat-spotting, and the absence of seized brake calipers. Given the high cumulative mileage and recent inactivity, checking for perished rubber bushings and fluid degradation is essential. While the MOT record shows no structural corrosion or suspension failure, the high total mileage suggests that drivetrain components and suspension mounts may be nearing the end of their natural service life.
