2014 Nissan 370 Z 3.7L Petrol · RK64 DYM

The most recent MOT test conducted on 3 August 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates that the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety and environmental standards required for road use. Given the absence of any noted failures or warnings in the latest report, the immediate mechanical trend appears stable, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids the common wear and tear failures typically seen in vehicles of this vintage. The recorded mileage of 46,758 miles over a twelve year period is exceptionally low, averaging approximately 3,896 miles per year. While low mileage generally implies less wear on the engine internals, gearbox, and drivetrain, it often indicates a vehicle that has spent significant periods stationary. Such usage patterns can be more detrimental to certain components than consistent high mileage use, as rubber seals can dry out and fluids can degrade due to time rather than distance. Prospective buyers should focus on age related degradation rather than wear related failure. It is critical to inspect the tyre sidewalls for perishing or hairline cracking, as tyres often reach their age limit before their tread limit, which can compromise safety at high speeds. The brake system requires close scrutiny for binding calipers or heavy surface corrosion on the brake discs, both of which are common symptoms of a vehicle that has stood for extended periods. Additionally, the 12V battery should be tested for health and cranking capacity, as infrequent use often leads to premature battery failure. Attention must be paid to calendar based maintenance regardless of the low odometer reading. The engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid should be checked for contamination or degradation, as these fluids break down over time and can lead to internal corrosion or reduced braking efficiency. A thorough review of the service history is essential to verify that oil changes have been performed annually rather than solely based on mileage intervals. Finally, the buyer should listen for any unusual suspension knocks or squeaks during the test drive, which may indicate that the rubber suspension bushes have hardened or perished due to age.
