2016 Nissan X-Trail 1.6L Diesel · YA16 FPE

The roadworthiness status of this 2016 Nissan X-Trail is sound, displaying a stable maintenance trend underpinned by clean administrative test history. In the most recent test conducted on April 15, 2025, at 111,329 miles, the vehicle secured a pass following an initial failure recorded on the exact same day. While the DVSA record does not specify the exact nature of the initial failure codes, the immediate same-day rectification and subsequent pass indicate that any administrative or minor preparatory hurdles were quickly resolved by the previous keeper. The vehicle has covered 111,329 miles over its roughly ten-year lifespan, averaging approximately 11,100 miles per year, which aligns closely with typical UK driving patterns. Annual mileage accumulation shows steady use, tracking from 83,914 miles on April 27, 2023, up to 96,895 miles by April 27, 2024, before reaching the current odometer reading in April 2025. This consistent yearly increment of roughly 13,000 to 14,000 miles points to regular highway usage rather than periods of prolonged inactivity or excessive commercial pounding. Prospective buyers should note that the MOT data is remarkably sparse regarding specific component advisories, as no advisory items or recurring mechanical faults appear on the 2023, 2024, or 2025 certificates. This lack of recorded wear items means the physical inspection must be thorough rather than reactive to the paperwork. A physical examination should prioritize the high-stress mechanical systems typical of large crossovers, specifically inspecting the suspension bushes, coil springs, steering joints, brake discs, and the condition of the all-wheel-drive drivetrain. Inspecting the chassis underside for structural corrosion and checking the service history outside of the MOT system will provide the final assurance needed regarding long-term reliability.
