2020 NISSAN MURANO SL FWD VIN 5N1AZ2CJ4LN133244

This Nissan Murano SL FWD was built in 2020. Under the bonnet is a 3.5-litre petrol engine. There is an automatic gearbox, with front-wheel drive. The specification is taken from the source data.

The car was recorded with 84,977 miles on the clock. Miles and kilometres are easy to confuse, and a distance in miles looks lower than the same distance in kilometres. Turning back an odometer takes little skill and leaves no visible trace, which is why earlier figures matter more than the display. Older figures usually turn up on service invoices, inspection reports and past title paperwork.

The main issue noted for this car is rear-end damage. The damage type is a short label: the extent of the damage and the quality of any repair still have to be judged on the car. A lift and a diagnostic check show what photos cannot: bent brackets behind a panel, chafed wiring or deployed airbags.

When checked, the car could be started and driven under its own power. A key was there when the car was checked. Months of standing can leave a car with seized brakes and perished tyres.

The record shows a salvage title. A title like this is issued when repair was judged uneconomical or unsafe. The structure and the quality of any work done deserve a thorough inspection on a car with a branded title.

A car’s history answers three questions: who kept it, how it was looked after and what went wrong along the way. From the outside, a car with a repaired accident and a car without one can look identical.

A petrol engine in good order starts cleanly, idles evenly and pulls without hesitation. The automatic gearbox needs its fluid changed at the manufacturer’s intervals, and invoices should show that it was.

Every modern car carries a 17-character VIN, and no two cars share one. The VIN of this Nissan Murano SL FWD is 5N1AZ2CJ4LN133244. The number in the car’s documents should match the one stamped into the body and the one on the plate at the base of the windscreen.

What a history report can list depends on what has been documented about the car: registrations, mileage readings, damage, branded titles and theft reports. A history report says nothing about the car’s present condition: the frame, corrosion, electrics and the quality of any repair are judged on a lift by a mechanic. The history behind VIN 5N1AZ2CJ4LN133244 is the natural starting point before any decision about this Nissan Murano SL FWD.
