Our Verdict
A sensible choice for those needing a co
When viewing this 1.5L diesel NV200, your primary focus should be on verifying the service history to complement the relatively clean MOT record. While the MOTs show no mechanical failures, they do not confirm regular oil changes or cambelt replacements, which are critical for this engine type.
Negotiate based on the age of the vehicle and ensure any recent maintenance, such as the tyre replacement suggested by the 2023 advisory, has been carried out. Check for any signs of heavy load usage, common in commercial vehicles of this age, by inspecting the rear suspension and interior floor condition.
The 1461cc diesel engine is designed for efficiency, making it relatively economical for a commercial vehicle. You should expect moderate fuel costs, though actual figures will depend on your typical payload and driving style.
Insurance groups for the NV200 vary, so obtain a quote based on your specific profile. Maintenance costs for this model are generally predictable, but budget for routine items like brakes and tyres, which were noted as an advisory point in the 2023 MOT.
Given the 2023 MOT advisory regarding a nearside front tyre worn on the outer edge, you should inspect the current tread depth and condition of all four tyres. More importantly, check the suspension components and wheel alignment; uneven tyre wear can indicate worn bushings, ball joints, or tracking issues.
As this is a 2012 diesel model, listen for any unusual engine noise or excessive smoke upon cold starting. Check the service intervals to ensure the timing belt has been changed according to manufacturer recommendations, as this is a vital maintenance item not captured by MOT inspections.
This 2012 Nissan NV200, finished in red, has covered 83,827 miles since its first registration in June 2012. The MOT history is notably clean, with the most recent three tests in 2024, 2025, and 2026 showing no defects recorded. Aside from a single tyre-related advisory in 2023, the vehicle has maintained a consistent pass record over the last five years.
No aggregate reliability data is currently available for the Nissan NV200 to provide a statistical comparison.
