2016 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · GY66 ULT

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 14 August 2025 at 50,988 miles with no defects recorded. That inspection occurred roughly eleven months ago, and the maintenance trend is stable, as the suspension fault flagged at 43,229 miles in August 2024 was rectified before the next inspection. Two consecutive clean results from 2024 and 2025 indicate the previous owner resolved the mechanical issue rather than letting it persist. The recorded mileage of 50,988 miles for a ten-year-old vehicle equates to roughly 5,099 miles per year. While this figure is lower than typical for a Nissan Juke of this age, the accumulation is consistent. There are no alarming gaps in usage, though the 2020 test at 15,578 miles shows a sharper increase of 2,655 miles in just ten months compared to the preceding year. The steady climb through 2021 and 2022 indicates regular, albeit moderate, use rather than a car standing unused for extended periods. The recurring failure of the offside front lower suspension arm ball joint in August 2024 is the most significant mechanical concern. This component is a wear item, and its excessive degradation implies the previous owner may have deferred replacement until the MOT forced attention. Tyre wear was flagged in both 2019 and 2021, with the 2021 test noting a sidewall cut on the nearside front outer tyre alongside worn edges. A buyer should physically inspect the front suspension arms and ball joints for play or cracking, and check the tyre sidewalls for age-related cracking or previous damage. The child seat belt obstruction noted in 2021 is a minor administrative item likely rectified by the clean 2022 result.
