2014 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · C3 RCN

The vehicle's roadworthiness shows signs of a worsening maintenance trend regarding corrosion. While the most recent test on 10 April 2026 at 63,633 miles resulted in a pass, the tester flagged significant issues including corroded suspension components and a worn nearside front suspension arm bush. This follows a period of clean records in 2024 and 2025, suggesting that structural and component degradation is becoming more prevalent as the vehicle ages. The mileage pattern indicates very light usage for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. The recorded distance has climbed steadily from 58,153 miles in April 2023 to 63,633 miles in April 2026. This low annual mileage often suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary, which can contribute to the accelerated corrosion seen in the braking and suspension systems. A prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the underbody and braking system. The MOT history reveals a recurring issue with brake line integrity, with a failure in April 2024 due to a leaking offside front brake pipe and excessive corrosion on the nearside front pipe. Although these were addressed, the April 2026 test identified new corrosion on the nearside front brake hose ferrule. The recent advisory regarding corroded suspension components and a worn bush indicates that the vehicle's chassis and running gear are beginning to suffer from environmental degradation. You should specifically inspect the condition of all suspension arms, bushes, and coil springs, as well as the integrity of the brake lines and hoses, to ensure the corrosion has not progressed beyond the points noted in the official records.
