2016 Nissan NV400 2.3L Diesel · NA16 USU

The 2016 Nissan NV400 presents a stable and reassuring maintenance trend, with the most recent MOT conducted on 27 February 2026 at 113,076 miles returning a clean pass with zero defects recorded. This outcome, combined with a consistent pattern of passes across the entire available history, indicates that the vehicle has been maintained to a competent standard with no recurring mechanical or structural faults flagged by any tester over a four-year window. The mileage accumulation is broadly typical for a ten-year-old commercial vehicle, averaging roughly 11,308 miles per year. The intervals between tests show a steady progression: 93,034 miles in October 2022, 99,697 miles in November 2023, 107,733 miles in January 2025, and 113,076 miles in February 2026. There are no alarming gaps or sudden jumps in recorded distance that would suggest long periods of disuse or odometer irregularities. The data set is clean and consistent, which supports confidence in the recorded history. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still carry out a thorough in-person inspection focused on areas that MOT tests only sample at a point in time. The NV400 is a panel van often subjected to heavy loads and urban stop-start work, so check the rear suspension for sagging or worn bushes, inspect the front coil springs and shock absorbers for leaks or corrosion, and examine the brake discs and pads for uneven wear that might not surface during a static emissions and brake test. Look closely at the load floor, sills, and wheel arches for any early signs of structural rust, particularly if the vehicle has operated in a region that uses road salt. Tyre condition and tread depth deserve attention too, as commercial vans frequently wear through rubber faster than the MOT minimums suggest. Inspect the exhaust system for corrosion or leaks that could worsen between tests, and verify that the engine runs cleanly at cold start to rule out emerging emissions issues. A clean MOT history is a strong positive indicator, but hands-on checks remain essential for confirming the vehicle's day-to-day mechanical integrity.
