2018 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · DP67 NVV

The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance trend shows a clear shift towards deferred mechanical and structural attention. While the most recent test in November 2025 at 21,444 miles passed, it introduced multiple advisories that were not present in previous years. The transition from a clean record in 2024 to multiple defects in 2025 suggests that the vehicle is beginning to suffer from age-related degradation rather than mileage-related wear. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,680 miles per year over its 21,444-mile history. This low usage is evident in the consistent intervals between tests, such as the 1,535-mile gap between January 2024 and January 2025. However, such long periods of stationary use often correlates with the degradation of rubber-based components and brake surfaces, which is supported by the recurring issues noted with tyres and brake hardware in the later record. A buyer must inspect the rear sub-frame closely, as the November 2025 test flagged corrosion. Although the tester deemed it not seriously weakened at that time, structural rust on a sub-frame is a progressive condition that requires monitoring for thinning. The front brake discs are also noted as pitted and scored, a common symptom of a car sitting for long periods without regular use. These discs likely require replacement to ensure consistent braking performance and prevent further corrosion. The tyres represent a recurring concern, with advisories for cracking and perishing appearing in 2023, early 2025, and again late 2025. This indicates the rubber compound is drying out due to age rather than tread depth wear. An in-person inspection should verify the sidewalls for deep fractures and confirm that the tyres have not reached the end of their structural life despite the low overall mileage.
