2013 NISSAN JUKE1.5L Diesel

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-10-13 at 62,958 miles recorded a pass with no defects. However, a prior test on 2025-10-09 at the same mileage failed with no defects noted, suggesting a potential administrative error or inconsistency. The preceding tests from 2024-2023 show consistent passes with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend over the past three years. The lack of recorded issues in these tests implies the car has been well-maintained, though the recent fail at identical mileage raises questions about the testing process. The vehicle’s mileage of 62,958 miles at 13 years old equates to an average of 4,843 miles annually, below the typical usage for its age. This low mileage could reflect infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which may affect components like the battery, tyres, and suspension. A significant jump from 57,586 miles (2024-11-21) to 62,958 miles (2025-10-13) over 11 months suggests a sudden increase in usage, potentially accelerating wear on consumables such as brakes, tyres, and transmission fluids. The sparse MOT history from 2023 to 2024 also lacks detailed diagnostics, limiting insight into minor issues. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask age-related degradation. The sudden mileage increase warrants checking brake discs for uneven wear and calipers for binding, which may not appear in MOT records. Corrosion in body seams or underbody panels should also be assessed, as prolonged inactivity can lead to rust. Despite the MOTs showing no defects, the recent fail and mileage fluctuations highlight the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm mechanical integrity.
