2014 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · FV14 WBJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but exhibits a clear and worsening trend regarding structural corrosion and suspension wear. While it passed its most recent test on 10 June 2026 at 49,382 miles, this followed a failure just days prior due to excessive ball joint wear and track rod end play. The persistence of corrosion on both the front and rear sub-frames, along with recurring brake pipe issues spanning over three years, indicates that the vehicle's structural integrity is undergoing gradual degradation despite the low annual mileage. At 12 years old, the Nissan Juke has a mileage of 49,382 miles, averaging approximately 4,115 miles per year. This low usage explains the relatively fresh condition of certain components, but it also highlights the age of rubber-based parts. Between June 2022 and June 2026, the vehicle covered only 8,773 miles, yet the record shows multiple entries for cracked tyres and worn suspension bushes. This suggests the car likely sits for long periods, leading to dry rot and rubber component perishation rather than mechanical fatigue. A buyer must prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the front and rear sub-frames to determine if the noted corrosion is reaching a structural limit. The tester has repeatedly flagged brake pipes as corroded and covered in grease, which is a common tactic used to hide deep decay; these should be replaced proactively to prevent a sudden line failure. Furthermore, the front lower suspension arms and ball joints have appeared as recurring points of failure in 2022, 2025, and 2026, indicating that the steering-related components are increasingly unstable and require close monitoring.
