2015 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · GH15 HDF

The most recent MOT test on 2025-07-01 at 129,110 miles resulted in a pass, though the maintenance trend reveals a persistent neglect of basic consumable upkeep. The tester flagged worn inner edges on both front tyres and the offside front outer tyre, indicating ongoing alignment or suspension geometry issues rather than simple wear. Looking back, the June 2023 test at 108,080 miles exposed a failure for a nearside front tyre with exposed ply or cords, a severe defect that suggests the previous owner delayed replacing degraded rubber. While the vehicle passed its subsequent tests, the recurring tyre wear advisories point to a pattern of ignoring tyre condition until they reach critical or illegal states. Accumulating 129,110 miles over eleven years yields an average of roughly 11,737 miles annually, a typical figure for a vehicle of this age. The MOT records show a steady mileage climb from 108,080 miles in June 2023 to 117,635 miles in July 2024, and finally to 129,110 miles in July 2025. This consistent accumulation of approximately 9,500 to 11,500 miles per year indicates regular use without prolonged periods of inactivity. There are no glaring gaps in the recorded mileage that would suggest the car was left standing for extended durations, though the current lack of a valid MOT for the 2026 test year requires immediate attention. A physical inspection must focus on the front suspension and steering components, given the recurring advisories. The July 2024 test at 117,635 miles flagged worn suspension arm pins and bushes on both front sides, alongside a deteriorated nearside front track rod end ball joint dust cover. Although the tester noted no excessive movement at that time, these components degrade progressively; a worn bush or split dust cover allows dirt ingress, accelerating joint wear and compromising structural integrity. Buyers should check for uneven tyre wear, which aligns with the repeated advisories regarding worn edges, and inspect the condition of the brake pads and discs, as the June 2023 test at 108,080 miles explicitly warned of thin pads on both axles.
