2014 Nissan Juke Visia 1.6L Petrol · TNZ 9162

A clean, advisory-free MOT record across six consecutive tests spanning 2024 and 2025 establishes this 2014 Nissan Juke Visia as a consistently roadworthy example, though the history contains a couple of points worth examining. The vehicle passed its most recent assessment on 8 July 2026 with no defects recorded, following a clean pass on 22 July 2025. Notably, the record shows two failures on dates immediately preceding the passes — 8 July 2025 and 20 March 2024 — with no defects recorded against either. This pattern is characteristic of tests aborted before completion (often due to emissions or pre-test issues flagged by the driver) rather than mechanical failures, and the subsequent clean passes support that interpretation. Overall, the absence of any advisories or recorded defects across the entire visible history indicates no chronic wear patterns have been formally identified by DVSA examiners, though this also means any developing issues would only be visible through a physical inspection and road test rather than the paperwork. Covering 72,665 miles over approximately twelve years, this Juke has averaged around 6,055 miles annually, which sits squarely within typical usage expectations for a car of its age. There are no extended gaps between tests or unusual mileage jumps recorded, suggesting the vehicle has been in consistent, regular use rather than left standing or subjected to either very low or very high annual accumulation. This steady usage profile is mechanically favourable for a Juke of this generation, as the HR15DE or HR16DE petrol engines and associated drivetrain components benefit from regular warm-up cycles rather than the cold-start stress associated with short-trip, low-mileage operation. The combination of average mileage and continuous annual testing indicates a car that has been driven normally throughout its life rather than stored or used only intermittently. For a prospective buyer, the clean MOT history shifts the inspection focus toward components that commonly affect higher-mileage Nissan Jukes but may not yet have reached advisory threshold. On a road test, pay particular attention to the CV joints and driveshaft gaiters, as torn boots are a frequent issue on this model and will eventually lead to joint failure if left unaddressed; listen for clicking noises on full lock turns and inspect the boots for splits or grease loss. The front suspension should be exercised over uneven surfaces, with attention to knocking from the front strut top mounts and lower wishbone bushes, both known wear items on the Juke. Steering should feel precise without vagueness, and the clutch should engage smoothly without slipping under load or juddering on take-off. Brake feel should be firm and progressive with no pulling to either side under steady braking, and the pedal should not require excessive travel. Listen for any binding or scraping noises from the front calipers, which can develop corrosion on this platform and lead to uneven pad wear or hot wheels after driving. Inside the cabin, check that the climate control functions correctly and that the infotainment system operates without fault, as electrical gremlins are not unusual on early Jukes. Under the bonnet, inspect for any signs of oil misting or weeping from the cam cover gasket and around the rocker cover, and confirm the coolant is clean and at the correct level with no residue around the expansion tank. Given the absence of any recorded advisories, a thorough pre-purchase inspection by an independent garage would be a sensible step to verify the condition of these age-related wear items before purchase.
