Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. The recurring natu
The primary concern with this vehicle is the braking system. Brake pipe corrosion has been flagged in both 2025 and 2026, with the MOT notes specifically mentioning pipes being 'covered in grease', which can sometimes be used to mask rust. You should verify if the pipes have been fully replaced or merely treated.
Given the 135,642 mileage on the 2.3L diesel engine, request full service records to ensure oil changes and filter replacements have been performed at the correct intervals. Negotiate the price based on the likelihood of needing new tyres and further brake work, as the offside rear tyre has been flagged for wear across two separate years.
As a large commercial diesel, the NV400's fuel costs will be significant, especially if used for heavy loads or urban stop-start driving. Insurance for this class of vehicle varies widely based on use, but it will be higher than a standard car.
Maintenance costs are likely to be above average for this specific unit due to the recurring corrosion and suspension issues seen in the MOT history. Expect to budget for regular brake system inspections and suspension component replacements as the vehicle ages.
Prioritise a thorough inspection of the brake lines; look for signs of genuine replacement rather than surface-level grease. The Nearside Front lower suspension ball joint and the Nearside Rear hydraulic brake caliper were both failure points in June 2026, so ensure these repairs were carried out to a professional standard.
Check the condition of the tyres, specifically the offside rear, which has been noted as worn or close to the legal limit in both May 2025 and June 2026. Finally, check the security of the engine cooling fan, which was listed as an advisory in the most recent test.
This red 2017 Nissan NV400 has recorded 135,642 miles. Its MOT history shows a pattern of failures in 2025 and 2026, specifically concerning braking components and suspension. While it passed its most recent test in June 2026, several critical items remained as advisories.
