2017 Nissan Navara 2.3L Diesel · SO17 LSF

The 2017 Nissan Navara passed its most recent MOT on 2025-09-22 at 142,310 miles, with no defects recorded. This suggests a stable maintenance trend in the final year, though the vehicle’s high mileage—15,812 miles annually—raises concerns about accelerated wear. A notable anomaly occurred in 2022-08-03, when the same mileage (137,933 miles) recorded a failed test with no defects listed, followed by a pass just six days later. This inconsistency may indicate procedural errors or unrecorded issues, warranting closer scrutiny of the vehicle’s mechanical integrity. The mileage progression reveals rapid accumulation between 2020 and 2022, with the odometer rising from 92,452 to 137,933 miles—a 45,481-mile increase over 24 months. This exceeds typical usage patterns for a 9-year-old vehicle, implying heavy usage or frequent short trips, which can strain components like the drivetrain, suspension, and braking system. Subsequent growth to 142,310 miles over three years appears more moderate, but the lack of detailed defect reports in earlier tests limits insight into potential wear trends. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, given the high mileage, and check brake discs for uneven wear or corrosion. The exhaust system merits attention due to potential age-related leaks or rust. While no structural issues are noted in the MOT history, the 2022 failure without recorded defects highlights the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection, particularly of the braking and exhaust systems, to confirm the vehicle’s roadworthiness beyond the MOT records.
