2014 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · BV14 XST

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 25 June 2026 at 107,078 miles, indicating it is currently roadworthy. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of recurring minor issues rather than a sudden decline in mechanical integrity. While the vehicle has successfully cleared its tests, the history reveals a tendency for suspension components and consumables to require attention. The most recent advisories regarding a damaged windscreen and a deteriorated rear registration plate are minor cosmetic and visibility issues that do not suggest underlying structural failure. The vehicle has covered 107,078 miles over approximately 12 years, averaging roughly 8,900 miles per year. This represents typical usage for a car of this age. The mileage accumulation appears consistent across the recorded period, with 4,003 miles recorded between July 2025 and June 2026, and 2,919 miles between October 2024 and July 2025. There are no significant gaps in usage or evidence of the vehicle standing idle for extended periods, which helps mitigate concerns regarding seized components or perished rubber seals due to inactivity. A prospective buyer should focus on the suspension and steering systems, as these have been a recurring theme. The September 2023 test flagged slight play in both front lower suspension arm ball joints, and the July 2025 test noted play in the nearside front suspension arm ball joint alongside a worn arm bush. A failure in September 2024 specifically highlighted excessive play in both front track rod ends. These repeated faults suggest that the front-end geometry and bushings are reaching the end of their service life. The October 2024 test also identified a noise from the auxiliary belt area, likely caused by a seized AC compressor clutch. Although the vehicle passed subsequent tests, this mechanical issue should be physically verified to ensure the compressor is functioning correctly or has been addressed. Finally, the frequent advisories regarding uneven tyre wear on the inner edges and the nearside front tyre being close to the legal limit in July 2025 suggest that wheel alignment or tracking may be out of specification.
