2021 Nissan Juke Tekna DIG-T 1.0L Petrol · KM71 XFN

Consistent compliance with roadworthiness standards defines this vehicle, which has maintained a clean record across its three most recent MOT tests, including the latest pass on 17 March 2026. There are no recorded failures or advisories in the DVSA history, suggesting that the critical safety systems, structural integrity, and emissions equipment have met the required legal thresholds during each annual inspection. This lack of historical defects indicates a stable baseline for the vehicle’s current mechanical state, though it does not provide insight into the condition of components that fall outside the scope of the statutory test. Accumulating 22,887 miles over a five-year period equates to an average of approximately 4,577 miles per annum, a usage profile that sits well below the national average for a modern crossover. While this lower mileage reduces the cumulative wear on the engine internals and transmission, it necessitates a focused inspection of components susceptible to environmental degradation rather than high-cycle fatigue. Prospective buyers should be aware that vehicles with limited annual usage can occasionally experience accelerated corrosion on brake friction surfaces or the early onset of perished rubber components if the vehicle has been subjected to prolonged periods of inactivity in damp conditions. During the test drive, pay close attention to the braking performance, as low-mileage vehicles can develop surface corrosion on the discs if they have sat for extended periods. Listen for any grinding or scraping noises during initial braking applications, which may signify that the pads are not seating correctly against the discs or that the calipers are binding. A smooth, consistent pedal feel is essential; any judder or vibration transmitted through the pedal under braking suggests potential disc run-out or uneven wear that would not necessarily be captured by a standard MOT pass. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, the suspension and steering linkages should remain tight, but it is prudent to evaluate these systems over varied road surfaces. Listen for any knocking, clunking, or rattling from the front and rear axles when traversing speed bumps or uneven road surfaces, as these sounds can indicate early-stage wear in the anti-roll bar links, control arm bushes, or top mounts. Additionally, verify that the steering remains neutral on a flat, straight road without pulling to either side, as this will confirm that the geometry remains within factory specifications and that there is no underlying damage to the steering rack or track rod ends.
