2013 Nissan NV200 1.5L Diesel · WL13 AAF

The 2013 Nissan NV200 passed its most recent MOT on 3 December 2025 at 140,739 miles with no defects, indicating a recent improvement after a failure on the same day at 140,735 miles. Although earlier tests from 2021 to 2024 repeatedly recorded suspension bush wear, anti‑roll bar linkage play, brake disc pitting and insufficient handbrake reserve travel, the latest pass shows those issues were either corrected or are no longer evident. The maintenance record therefore reflects an intermittent but ultimately stabilising pattern rather than a clear worsening or improving trajectory. The vehicle has accumulated 140,739 miles over 13 years, averaging about 10,800 miles per year, which is typical for its age. Mileage growth was steady until 2023, when the annual increase rose to roughly 9,000 miles, and then jumped to 11,900 miles between the 2024 and 2025 tests, suggesting a period of heavier use or a long idle interval followed by intensified operation. No major gaps appear in the documentation, and the mileage progression aligns with normal wear patterns. A buyer should therefore inspect the front and rear suspension bushes and the anti‑roll bar linkages, which have repeatedly shown excessive wear, and confirm that the handbrake lever now exhibits adequate reserve travel. The brake system warrants close scrutiny, as discs have been worn, pitted or scored since 2018 and pads have been thin since 2021; the recent pass suggests the discs may have been resurfaced or replaced, but the condition should be verified. Steering rack inner joint play should be checked, given its recurrence from 2023 onward. Finally, tyre condition must be assessed, as multiple entries record tyres worn close to the legal limit and on the edge, indicating possible neglect of regular rotation or replacement. Verify that all position lamps and the rear registration plate lamp function, as these have failed repeatedly, and look for any signs of structural rust or chassis damage around the wheel arches, which could affect long‑term integrity.
