Our Verdict
This 2014 Nissan NV200 diesel has a rela
Despite the absence of MOT failures, the recurrence of anti-roll bar linkage ball joint advisories in 2024 and 2025 (both front and rear, both sides) suggests these components may be approaching the end of their service life. A pre-purchase inspection should specifically examine the anti-roll bar linkages, wishbone bushes (flagged in 2023), and brake pipes (noted as corroded in 2024). The fact that the 2026 test recorded no defects is encouraging, but this could reflect either recent remedial work or that the items have not yet deteriorated to advisory-defect threshold.
Negotiation should account for the likely cost of replacement anti-roll bar drop links and bushes, which on a 1.5 dCi NV200 typically cost £150-£300 per pair plus labour. Ask the seller directly whether any suspension work has been carried out in the last 18 months and request any supporting invoices. Given the 12-year age, also inspect for the usual commercial van wear points: load area condition, sliding door mechanism, and clutch feel.
Service history documentation is particularly important for a diesel van of this age. Ask for evidence of regular oil and filter changes, timing belt replacement (the 1.5 dCi chain is generally durable, but verify), and any turbocharger-related work. Diesel particulate filter condition on a low-mileage urban van can be a concern if it has been used primarily for short trips.
The 1.5 dCi diesel engine is well known for strong fuel economy, typically returning 55-65 mpg in mixed commercial use, which keeps day-to-day running costs reasonable. Road tax for a van of this age and emissions class sits in a modest band, though exact VED should be confirmed via the DVLA. Insurance for the NV200 tends to fall in the lower groups, making it an affordable proposition for small business or private buyers.
Estimated annual maintenance is in the region of £400-£700 for a vehicle of this age and mileage, assuming no major work is required. However, given the recurring suspension advisories in the MOT record, budgeting an additional £300-£500 for anti-roll bar linkage and bush replacement in the near term would be prudent. The diesel engine itself is generally robust, but DPF, turbo, and injector concerns can arise on high-mileage examples; at 43,257 miles this unit is relatively low-mileage, which is favourable.
Combined estimated annual running costs, allowing for the anticipated suspension work, fall in the £1,200-£1,600 range including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance.
The MOT history points to a clear pattern around the anti-roll bar system: front and rear linkage ball joints showed slight play in 2024 and 2025, while wishbone bushes were flagged in 2023. On inspection, jack the vehicle and rock each front wheel vertically and laterally to check for play in the drop links and bushes. Also examine the brake pipes noted as corroded in 2024, particularly along the underbody and near suspension mounting points, as corrosion here can escalate quickly.
Beyond the documented MOT items, inspect the load floor and rear suspension for signs of heavy commercial use. Check the sliding door operation, as NV200 doors are known to develop alignment and roller issues. Examine the turbo and intercooler pipes for oil residue, and check the EGR valve for carbon build-up, both common on the 1.5 dCi.
Tyre wear was flagged on both fronts in 2025, so check current tyre condition, age (DOT date code), and brand consistency. Uneven wear may indicate alignment issues stemming from the worn suspension components. Also verify that all warning lights extinguish promptly on start-up, particularly the DPF and glow plug indicators.
This silver NV200 is powered by the 1.5 dCi diesel engine and has covered 43,257 miles across five recorded MOT tests between 2022 and 2026. Every test has resulted in a pass with no failures, which is a positive indicator, though multiple advisories relating to anti-roll bar linkage ball joints have appeared across three consecutive tests. The vehicle is now approaching its 12th year, so age-related wear should be expected alongside the documented suspension concerns.
The Nissan NV200 with the 1.5 dCi diesel is generally regarded as a dependable small van, though the lack of aggregate MOT data for this model in the provided records makes specific benchmarking impossible. The 1.5 dCi unit has a broadly positive reputation for longevity when serviced regularly.
