2019 Nissan Leaf Electricity · SB19 NVC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean pass on 7 November 2025 at 31,449 miles. While the maintenance trend shows a recent dip in standards with a failure just one day prior, the subsequent pass indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than preventative care. The immediate rectification of the brake-related failures suggests the owner is willing to address mechanical faults once they are flagged by the DVSA tester. The mileage profile is low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns between 2023 and 2025, with the car covering 7,575 miles between the May 2023 and May 2025 tests. This low mileage typically suggests less wear on the electric drivetrain and suspension, though it can sometimes lead to age-related issues such as corrosion on braking components if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods between journeys. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, as the November 2025 failure highlighted pitted front brake discs and a thin nearside rear brake pad. Although these were replaced to pass the test, an inspector should check the remaining pad thickness on all wheels and ensure the calipers are not seizing or showing signs of corrosion. Given the low mileage, the buyer should also inspect the rubber seals and suspension bushings for cracking or perish, as these components can degrade over time regardless of the distance driven.
