Our Verdict
A reasonable option for buyers seeking a
Focus your attention on the suspension system. The vehicle failed its February 2026 MOT due to an excessively worn offside front suspension arm ball joint; you should verify that this was replaced with a quality part. Additionally, check for invoices relating to the remaining suspension advisories to see if the worn pins and bushes have been rectified since the test.
As the MOT history only confirms roadworthiness at the time of testing, request the full service history to check for oil change intervals and other preventative maintenance. Use the current advisories regarding tyre wear as a negotiation point, as the rear tyres were noted as being close to the legal limit.
The 1197cc petrol engine provides a balance of urban usability and reasonable fuel economy. Insurance costs are typically mid-range for this class of vehicle, and the 2018 registration places it in a standard tax bracket for petrol engines of this size.
Annual maintenance costs are generally moderate, although the aggregate data suggests that suspension components and exhausts are common failure points. Budget for periodic tyre replacements and suspension upkeep to keep the vehicle in line with MOT standards.
Prioritise a physical inspection of the suspension. The February 2026 MOT recorded worn front suspension arm pins and bushes as advisories; check for any knocks or instability during a test drive. Ensure the offside front ball joint repair is documented and secure.
Inspect the rear tyres carefully, as they were recorded as worn on the edges and close to the legal limit during the last test. Finally, ensure all rear adult seatbelts are fully operational and retract correctly, as a child seat prevented a full inspection of the nearside rear belt during the most recent MOT.
This black 2018 Nissan Juke has recorded 42,817 miles, which is below the average annual mileage for this model. The MOT history since 2023 shows four tests, including one failure in February 2026. The vehicle's record is relatively clean, though recent advisories highlight wear in the suspension and tyres.
This model has an average MOT pass rate of 78.2%, with ball joints, exhausts, and headlamps being the most frequent causes of failure.
