2015 Nissan Juke 1.2L Petrol · BU15 AAZ

The 2015 Nissan Juke’s most recent MOT test on 2025-12-02 at 53,847 miles passed without any defects, marking the first successful test after a single failure on 2025-11-20 at 53,738 miles. The absence of recurring advisories or defects across all five tests suggests the vehicle has not experienced persistent mechanical issues, though the November failure—despite no recorded faults—indicates a brief anomaly that resolved itself before the subsequent pass. The consistent pattern of passing tests, combined with the lack of structural or safety-related advisories, implies the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though no evidence of proactive servicing or component replacements is visible in the record. The recorded mileage of 53,847 miles over 11 years—approximately 4,895 miles annually—is unusually low for a vehicle of this age, suggesting either minimal use or prolonged periods of inactivity. The gaps between tests are irregular: a 10-month interval between the 2024 and 2025 tests (43,872 to 49,271 miles) and another 10-month gap between the 2025 failures (49,271 to 53,847 miles), with no intermediate servicing or mileage progression. While low mileage can reduce wear on high-stress components like suspension bushes or drivetrain, it also raises questions about fluid changes, tyre rotation, and general upkeep during periods of disuse, which could accelerate degradation in areas like corrosion or rubber seals. Given the lack of recorded defects or advisories, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of suspension components—particularly rear coil springs and bushes—due to the vehicle’s age and mileage, as these are common failure points in this model. The November 2025 failure, though unexplained, warrants scrutiny of brake systems, including caliper binding or excessive disc wear, as these are frequent causes of MOT failures. Corrosion should be checked thoroughly at wheel arches, sills, and underbody, especially if the vehicle has spent extended periods stationary. Finally, the absence of service records means fluids—engine oil, brake fluid, and coolant—should be inspected for degradation or contamination, as these are not visible in MOT results.
