2013 Nissan Leaf Electric · VA13 AHZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on June 4 2026 at 74,633 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows a stable trajectory following a period of reactive repairs in 2024. While the car previously failed due to brake and suspension issues, the subsequent passes indicate that the owner has addressed these critical mechanical faults to bring the vehicle back up to testing standard. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 74,633 miles represents a low average of approximately 5,741 miles per year. This low usage profile often suggests less wear on the powertrain and interior, but the data reveals a significant gap. Between June 2023 and April 2024, the vehicle covered only 153 miles in nearly ten months. This pattern of intermittent use suggests the car may have sat stationary for extended periods, which can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid seals despite the low overall mileage. A buyer should perform a close physical inspection of the front suspension, as the history shows the track rod end ball joint dust covers were flagged in 2023 and 2024. Although these were reportedly replaced, the recurring nature of perished rubber indicates age-related brittleness across the chassis. The rear braking system also requires scrutiny; the pads were noted as wearing thin in May 2025 and reached a failure threshold in April 2024. You must verify the current thickness of the rear pads and check for any uneven wear or sticking calipers to ensure the 2026 pass was supported by thorough maintenance.
