AV12 AYN MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Nissan Juke (AV12 AYN) between June 2024 and August 2026.
The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.
The most recent test on 17 August 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (7 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Bodywork (2 issues), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 16 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.
Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Rear Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Nearside Front Upper Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.

Our Verdict
Exercise caution with this vehicle. Whil
The primary concern for a buyer is the structural integrity of the chassis. You should seek professional confirmation on whether the subframe and rear axle corrosion is superficial or structural, as this can be costly to rectify. Given the recurring issues with suspension arm pins and bushes seen in 2024 and 2026, ensure all suspension components are functioning smoothly without excessive play.
Negotiate the purchase price to account for the immediate need to monitor the corrosion and the likelihood that the remaining suspension advisories will require mechanical attention in the near future. Request all receipts for the repairs carried out in August 2026 to confirm the quality of the coil spring replacement.
Powered by a 1.6L petrol engine, this Juke offers moderate fuel economy typical of early crossovers. Insurance costs are generally reasonable for this model, though the 2012 tax band should be verified against the specific CO2 emissions of this variant.
Maintenance costs are likely to be higher than average for this age of vehicle. The presence of corrosion and repeated suspension failures suggests that annual upkeep will exceed basic servicing to keep the vehicle roadworthy. Expected annual costs will include fuel, tax, insurance, and a budget for rust prevention or component replacement.
Prioritise a thorough inspection of the underbody. Specifically, check the front subframe and rear axle for the corrosion noted in the August 2026 MOT; look for flaking metal or deep pitting. Inspect the front tyres for uneven wear, which often correlates with the worn suspension arm bushes mentioned in the records.
Verify the condition of the rear coil springs to ensure the 2026 fracture was properly repaired. Additionally, check the brake pad thickness, as the vehicle previously failed on wearing thin pads in June 2024, to determine the current service interval for the braking system.
This grey 2012 Nissan Juke has covered 106,978 miles. The MOT history reveals a pattern of suspension wear and a recent failure in August 2026 due to a fractured rear coil spring. Most notably, the most recent test lists corrosion on both the front subframe and the rear axle as advisories.
The Nissan Juke has an average MOT pass rate of 78.2%, with common failure points typically involving ball joints and exhaust systems.
