2016 Nissan Navara 2.3L Diesel · ML66 XCJ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history reveals a consistent trend of reactive rather than proactive servicing. The most recent test in August 2025 at 129,692 miles flagged worn and pitted front brake discs along with thin front brake pads. This follows a pattern seen in June 2023 at 121,954 miles, indicating that the owner tends to allow braking components to reach the point of failure before replacing them in sets. At 129,692 miles over ten years, this Navara has averaged approximately 13,000 miles per annum, which sits above the national average for a light commercial vehicle. The mileage accumulation is steady, with roughly 5,600 miles covered between the July 2024 and August 2025 tests and another 2,100 miles between June 2023 and July 2024. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has been used regularly, which naturally places higher stress on the drivetrain and suspension assembly. A buyer should prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the front braking system, as the record shows the discs are scoring and pitting. Given the recurring nature of these faults, the buyer must verify if the calipers are seizing or if the slide pins are causing uneven wear. The high mileage also necessitates a close look at the suspension bushes, ball joints, and coil springs for signs of fatigue, as these components frequently fail on Navaras once exceeding the 120,000-mile mark. While no structural corrosion has been noted in the history, the age and usage of the vehicle require a check for rust on the chassis members and exhaust system.
