Nissan Nv250 Tekna Dci: MOT pass rate and reliability data

The Nissan Nv250 Tekna Dci passes its MOT first time more often than the average UK car, by 2.4 percentage points. These figures come from the DVSA's full year of anonymised MOT results, covering 588 individual Nissan Nv250 Tekna Dci tests. Nothing here is an estimate or a survey.

The numbers

What this means if you are buying one

A 79.1% first-time pass rate means roughly 21 in every 100 Nissan Nv250 Tekna Dcis presented for MOT fail on the first attempt. That is better than average, so a well-kept example is a reasonably safe used buy. The average Nissan Nv250 Tekna Dci tested had covered 48,558 miles and was built around 2020.

What this means at salvage auction

Pass rate is a proxy for what a car costs to keep on the road. The Nissan Nv250 Tekna Dci sits 2.4 points above the national average, ranked 1,477 of 2,005 models. On one bought as repairable salvage, the mechanical side is less likely to spring surprises, so your repair estimate should hold up reasonably well.

Before you bid: run the lot through the analyzer, check the car's own record, check the mileage, decode the VIN, and if it carries a marker use the write-off value calculator. Or compare it against another model.
