2013 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · EU63 BKF

The 2013 Nissan Juke presents a mixed maintenance picture. The most recent MOT, conducted on 7 July 2025 at 76,385 miles, passed, but only after a failure on the same day at 76,384 miles. That failure flagged front and rear brake pads below 1.5 mm and a worn front brake disc, all rectified before the pass. The trend is broadly stable rather than deteriorating, though the pattern of failing first time and returning within hours suggests last-minute repairs rather than proactive servicing. Advisories have been recurring for several years, indicating some issues are being managed reactively. The mileage profile is notably low. At 76,385 miles over roughly thirteen years, the annual average sits around 5,876 miles. The gap between the January 2023 test at 66,186 miles and the June 2024 test at 70,987 miles accounts for 4,801 miles over approximately seventeen months, which is consistent with light use. The jump to 76,385 miles by July 2025 represents 5,398 miles in just over twelve months, a modest uptick but still well within normal parameters for a vehicle of this age. There are no alarming mileage gaps or sudden spikes that would suggest the car has been standing idle for extended periods or subjected to unusually hard use. A buyer should pay close attention to the front and rear braking system. The July 2025 failure recorded pads below 1.5 mm on both axles and a worn front disc, while the June 2024 test noted pads wearing thin on both front and rear. This repeated pattern suggests the braking components are being run close to their limits between tests rather than replaced with comfortable margin. The nearside track rod end ball joint, which showed excessive play in the June 2024 failure, warrants a physical check for any residual looseness or uneven tyre wear. The rear tyres have appeared repeatedly with cracking and perishing advisories in both 2024 tests, and uneven inner edge wear was noted on the nearside rear in 2023, pointing to possible alignment or suspension bush wear that has not been formally flagged since. The offside front fog lamp and registration plate lamp faults in 2024 also suggest minor electrical reliability issues that may persist intermittently. A thorough inspection of the underside for corrosion, particularly around suspension mounting points and brake lines, is advisable given the vehicle's age, even though no structural corrosion has been formally recorded.
