2013 Nissan Leaf Electric · YH63 VCE

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass record over the last four years. The most recent test in August 2025 at 33,848 miles resulted in a failure for a non-functional nearside rear stop lamp, which was rectified immediately to achieve a pass. Prior to this minor electrical fault, the vehicle maintained clean passes without any advisories, indicating that the mechanical and structural components remain within acceptable parameters. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,600 miles per year. Between August 2022 at 20,366 miles and July 2024 at 31,088 miles, the car covered only 10,722 miles. This low usage frequency suggests minimal mechanical wear on the drivetrain, braking system, and suspension assembly. However, long periods of inactivity can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber-based components or brake caliper seizing, despite the low recorded mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the tyres and brake components, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from dry rot in the tyres or seized brake pins. Given the record shows no previous advisories for corrosion or suspension play, the structural integrity appears sound. Verifying the state of the high-voltage battery and cooling system is essential, as age-related degradation is a more significant risk for this model than mileage-based wear.
