2013 Nissan Leaf MOT history

Type the registration of any UK Nissan Leaf hatchback and we'll display every annual MOT test the DVSA holds. That includes the pass/fail outcome, the recorded mileage at each test, every advisory note (so you can see what the tester flagged for the next visit) and the failure reasons in detail when an attempt didn't pass. The MOT history is the strongest mileage paper-trail in the UK and the cheapest piece of due diligence available before any used-car purchase.

A 2013 Nissan Leaf is around 13 years old. UK first-time MOT fail rates at this age routinely exceed 42%. Suspension, brakes, exhaust corrosion and underbody rust dominate the failure reasons. The MOT trail will show whether this particular Leaf has been kept on top of, or whether problems were repeatedly carried forward as advisories.

Fully-electric Leafs skip the engine emissions and oil-leak items, but the MOT still checks brakes, suspension, steering, lights and tyres. EVs typically run softer brake usage thanks to regen, so brake wear advisories tend to come up later in life — but tyre wear arrives sooner because of higher kerb weight and instant torque. Check both in the historic record.
