2021 Nissan Leaf Electric · YC71 NJK

The 2021 Nissan Leaf presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 30 June 2025 at 31,815 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, matching the prior clean result from 3 July 2024 at 22,840 miles. Two consecutive MOT passes with zero advisories indicate the previous keeper maintained the vehicle to a standard that satisfied DVSA examiners on structural integrity, suspension, brakes, and emissions. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a five-year-old car. The record shows 8,975 miles added between July 2024 and June 2025, equating to roughly 6,363 miles per year across the vehicle's life. No gaps or abrupt jumps appear in the two entries supplied; the sparse history of only two tests limits deep trend analysis, but the clean outcomes suggest no deferred consumable neglect such as worn tyres or failed lamps. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the unblemished MOT trail. The DVSA test does not assess battery state of health, coolant condition, or drivetrain wear on electric vehicles, so the Leaf's traction battery and reduction gear should be scanned for fault codes. Check suspension bushes and brake discs for corrosion after likely low-use standing periods, and verify tyre sidewalls for cracking from age rather than mileage. Given the absent advisories, no recurring mechanical faults demand correction before purchase. The clean record implies disciplined upkeep, yet a pre-sale health check remains prudent on a 31,815-mile EV where tester scope excludes high-voltage component degradation.
