2020 Nissan X-Trail 1.7L Diesel · SL20 VKN

The vehicle presents an exceptionally clean mechanical record, with the most recent MOT on 24 October 2025 resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. This trajectory of four consecutive clean passes indicates a stable and well-maintained history, suggesting the previous owner adhered to a proactive servicing schedule. The absence of even minor advisories across the last four years of testing implies that the vehicle has been kept in a high state of roadworthiness. The recorded mileage of 44,550 miles over a six-year period aligns with standard usage patterns, averaging roughly 7,400 miles annually. The consistency of the mileage accumulation between the 2022 test and the 2025 assessment confirms the vehicle has seen regular, steady use rather than long periods of inactivity. This level of usage is generally preferable for modern diesel or petrol engines, as it avoids the potential for seized components or battery degradation often associated with long-term storage. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the suspension bushes and the integrity of the CV joint gaiters, as these components frequently show wear on X-Trail models of this vintage despite clean MOT results. While the testing history is spotless, check the brake discs for signs of surface corrosion or pitting, which can occur if the vehicle sits for extended periods between drives. Verify that the electronic parking brake engages and releases smoothly, as this is a specific area of concern for this generation of Nissan SUVs. Given the lack of historical advisories, the vehicle appears to be a sound mechanical proposition, provided the service book confirms that oil changes and fluid flushes have kept pace with the annual mileage.
