2010 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · EU60 KZJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean passes to emerging mechanical wear. In the most recent test in June 2025 at 113,661 miles, the tester identified multiple advisories that were absent in the previous two years. While the car passed the inspection, the appearance of worn brake components, thin pads, and suspension-related play indicates that the vehicle is entering a phase where frequent preventative maintenance is required to maintain its current safety standard. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per year. There is a steady accumulation of mileage, with 5,106 miles recorded between June 2024 and June 2025, and another 7,719 miles between June 2023 and 2024. This regular usage suggests the car has not sat stationary for long periods, which generally prevents internal corrosion but explains the gradual degradation of rubber components and metal surfaces. The failure in June 2023 due to a worn front suspension arm bush confirms that the rubber components are beginning to reach the end of life. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the braking system and front geometry. The 2025 record flagged pitted and scored discs on both axles along with thinning rear pads, suggesting that a full brake overhaul may be necessary soon. The slight play noted in the nearside front track rod end ball joint should be checked to ensure it does not progress into a steering failure. Additionally, the non-excessive engine oil leak should be monitored for rate changes to ensure the leak does not accelerate, and the perished offside rear tyre requires immediate replacement to avoid age-related structural failure.
