2011 Nissan X-Trail 2.0L Diesel · PJ60 WFD

The vehicle currently maintains a clean bill of health following its MOT test on 16 January 2026 at 163,948 miles. This most recent inspection shows no recorded defects or advisories, which indicates a positive shift in maintenance standards compared to the preceding four years of testing. The trend appears to be one of resolution, as recurring issues identified in earlier cycles have been rectified, leaving the vehicle in a stable mechanical state for its current age. With an average annual accumulation of approximately 10,930 miles over its fifteen-year lifespan, the vehicle shows a consistent and predictable usage pattern. The mileage progression remains steady, moving from 148,303 miles in January 2022 to the current figure, suggesting the car has been used regularly rather than left to stand for extended periods. This consistent usage often benefits mechanical components by preventing the premature seizing of calipers or the degradation of seals that typically occurs in low-mileage, neglected vehicles. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension, specifically the ball joints and bushings. The MOT history records recurring play in the offside front suspension arm ball joint between 2024 and 2025, and earlier wear on the nearside front bush in 2022. While these items passed the most recent inspection, they are high-wear components that likely received remedial work to clear the 2026 test. Verify the quality of these repairs by checking for recent invoices or signs of new hardware. The historical pattern of tyre wear on the inner or outer edges suggests that the vehicle may have previously suffered from tracking or alignment issues. While the tyres are currently compliant, inspect the inner and outer tread depths across all four corners to ensure the geometry remains set correctly. Given the age and mileage of this Nissan, a thorough check of the undercarriage for surface corrosion is also advisable, as the MOT record does not explicitly detail the state of the chassis beyond the suspension components.
