2017 Nissan Leaf Electric · SC17 OGG

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness with a consistently clean MOT record across the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted on 29 October 2024 at 50,131 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This trend of consecutive passes suggests a stable maintenance history where the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable parameters without any recurring failures or warning signs from the DVSA tester. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,570 miles per year. Between October 2020 (38,213 miles) and October 2024 (50,131 miles), the car covered only 11,918 miles. This low annual usage indicates light operation, which typically reduces wear on friction-related components like brake discs and suspension bushings. However, the significant time gaps between tests can sometimes lead to surface corrosion on rubber components or aged fluid if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. Given the lack of recorded faults in the history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age rather than distance. Check the rubber tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spots, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from dry rot before the tread wears out. Inspect the brake calipers for seizing and examine the underbody for any signs of unexpected corrosion on the chassis members. While the record shows no structural issues, a manual check of the electric battery health and the cooling system remains essential for a Nissan Leaf of this era.
