2016 Nissan X-Trail 1.6L Diesel · PN66 VLX

This Nissan X-Trail presents an exceptionally stable maintenance profile. The most recent MOT on 13 August 2025 at 104,464 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This continues a consistent trend of flawless test results dating back to January 2021, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard or has benefited from proactive servicing. The mileage accumulation has increased significantly in recent years. Between January 2021 and July 2022, the vehicle covered 23,259 miles. This pace accelerated further between August 2023 and August 2025, where the odometer rose from 69,861 to 104,464 miles. While the overall average of 10,446 miles per year is typical for a ten year old car, the recent surge indicates heavier usage that will naturally increase the wear on drivetrain components and suspension. The absence of any recorded advisories over five years is unusual for a vehicle of this age and mileage. The tester flagged no issues with brake discs, suspension bushes, or structural corrosion across multiple tests. This lack of data on wear-and-tear items means a buyer cannot rely on the MOT history to gauge the remaining life of consumables. A physical inspection should focus on components that typically degrade at 100,000 miles but may not have triggered a failure. Prioritise checking the condition of the brake pads and tyres, as well as inspecting the underside for any emerging corrosion that the tests may have overlooked. Given the recent increase in annual mileage, a review of the service history for timing belt or fluid changes is recommended to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean MOT record.
