2015 Nissan Pulsar 1.2L Petrol · FG15 AAF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive repairs rather than proactive preventative care. The most recent test in March 2026 at 95,068 miles identified a worn offside front suspension arm pin or bush and developing cracking on the inner wall of the nearside front tyre. While the car passed, the presence of these defects suggests that rubber suspension components are beginning to reach the end of their functional life, requiring attention to prevent future failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,600 miles per year. There is a steady accumulation of usage recorded between 2018 and 2026, with a notable jump from 25,034 miles in March 2018 to 71,219 miles by March 2023. The period of clean MOT records between 2022 and 2024 indicates a phase of low-stress operation, though the more recent years show increased mileage has led to more frequent mechanical and consumable failures. A buyer should closely inspect the front suspension assembly, as the record shows a recurring issue with bushes and arm components. The failure of the offside rear coil spring at 71,219 miles indicates the suspension system has been subjected to stress, and all remaining springs should be checked for corrosion or fractures. Additionally, the high handbrake travel noted in 2019 suggests the braking mechanism may require adjustment or inspection of the cables to ensure effective parking performance. Given the history of tyre damage, including nails and cuts, a thorough check of the current tyre sidewall integrity is essential to ensure no hidden structural damage is present.
