Nissan Nv250 Tekna DCI (2019)
2019 Nissan Nv250 Tekna DCI
CarHunch analysed 131 real MOT records for the 2019 Nissan Nv250 Tekna DCI. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2019 Nissan NV250 Tekna DCI falls just short of the UK average with a 78.5% first-time pass rate, and nearly a third of vehicles in this cohort have recorded a dangerous defect at some point—that's a meaningful concern for a buyer and warrants a pre-purchase inspection by a specialist. The median mileage of 49,260 miles is reasonable for a five-year-old van, yet these vehicles are averaging 1.05 failures and 4.3 advisories per test, suggesting modest but persistent reliability issues rather than catastrophic problems.
This van accumulates advisories at a notably higher rate than failures, indicating wear items and minor niggles are the norm rather than structural faults. Before committing to one, have a trusted mechanic inspect the history of any dangerous defects recorded on the specific vehicle's MOT log, as the 30.5% figure suggests this isn't a one-off outlier issue.
What to check before buying a 2019 Nissan Nv250 Tekna DCI
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- ⚠️ 30.5% of these vehicles have had a dangerous defect recorded. Enter the reg below — the full MOT history will show exactly what was flagged and whether it was resolved.
