2021 Nissan Juke Tekna DIG-T S-A 1.0L Petrol · LD70 PGV

The Nissan Juke in question presents a clean and stable roadworthiness record, with both its most recent MOT in May 2025 and the preceding test in February 2024 passing without any defects or advisories. The absence of recurring failures or even minor advisories over this period suggests the vehicle has been well maintained within the scope of what the MOT assesses. At 14,426 miles, the car remains within its first MOT cycle, having just passed its initial annual test—this is a positive indicator of no immediate mechanical or structural red flags. The low recorded mileage of 14,426 over five years (around 2,885 miles per annum) further supports the likelihood of minimal wear on critical components, though this could also imply the vehicle has spent extended periods in storage or seen very light use. The mileage pattern is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, particularly given the Juke’s typical annual mileage expectations for a used car of this age. The gap between the February 2024 test (10,171 miles) and the May 2025 test (14,426 miles) spans roughly 15 months, during which only 4,255 miles were added—a pace that suggests either infrequent driving or periods of inactivity. While this reduces wear on consumables, it may also mean some fluids (such as brake fluid or coolant) have not been refreshed as frequently as recommended. The lack of mileage accumulation could also raise questions about whether the odometer has been tampered with, though without additional service records, this remains speculative. For a prospective buyer, the primary focus should be on components not routinely covered by the MOT but critical to long-term reliability. Given the low mileage, suspension elements like coil springs, anti-roll bars, and bushings are unlikely to show significant degradation, but a thorough inspection of these should still confirm no pre-existing softness or corrosion. The brakes, while not flagged in the MOT, should be checked for uneven wear or binding—particularly the rear calipers, which can seize over time even with minimal use. Structural integrity is less of a concern at this mileage, but a close look at the sills, wheel arches, and underbody for early corrosion would be prudent, especially if the car has been stored in damp conditions. Finally, verifying the condition of the tyres (tread depth, sidewalls, and age) and ensuring the battery remains healthy—given the potential for infrequent use—would address the most common issues in low-mileage vehicles.
