2022 Nissan Juke Tekna + DIG-T S-A 1.0L Petrol · AV72 KUG

The most recent MOT test conducted on 20 December 2025 resulted in a clean pass with no recorded defects or advisories. Based on this recent result, the vehicle's maintenance trend appears stable and indicates that the car has been kept in a roadworthy condition without any immediate mechanical failures or structural concerns. As there are no historical defects to reference, the vehicle presents a positive initial profile from a regulatory compliance standpoint. The recorded mileage of 8,764 miles against a four-year age profile represents exceptionally low annual usage, averaging approximately 2,191 miles per year. While this low mileage suggests minimal wear on the engine, transmission, and suspension bushes, it also implies that the vehicle may have been subject to long periods of standing. In automotive terms, low-use vehicles often bypass the mechanical wear associated with high mileage but can instead suffer from degradation related to inactivity, such as fluid stagnation or component oxidation. Given the clean MOT record and the low mileage, your physical inspection should prioritise age-related items over wear-and-tear components. Closely inspect the tyres for any signs of perishing or sidewall cracking, as rubber can lose its elasticity and integrity due to age and environmental exposure even if the tread depth is substantial. You should also check the brake discs for heavy surface corrosion or pitting, which is common in vehicles that are not driven regularly. During the test drive, listen for any signs of binding calipers or unusual noises from the suspension, and feel for any brake shudder that might indicate unevenly corroded disc surfaces. Finally, verify the service history to ensure that time-based maintenance has been strictly followed. Because this vehicle has been driven so little, it is vital to confirm that engine oil and other essential fluids have been changed according to the manufacturer's time intervals rather than mileage alone. Additionally, check the health of the 12V battery, as infrequent use can lead to a loss of charge capacity. Confirming that the service book contains regular stamps will provide the necessary assurance that the vehicle has been maintained against the risks of stagnation and fluid degradation.
