2015 Nissan Juke 1.2L Petrol · LK15 RLZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward developing mechanical wear. While it passed its latest test in September 2025 at 86,383 miles, the tester flagged several advisories that were not present in the previous year. The appearance of an offside track rod end ball joint with play and a reported oil leak indicates that components are beginning to reach the end of their functional life after a period of relatively clean test results. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,850 miles per year. There is a steady accumulation of mileage, with roughly 8,600 miles covered between October 2024 and September 2025, and another 7,900 miles between October 2023 and October 2024. This regular usage suggests the car has been driven consistently rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for engine seals and battery health but leads to inevitable rubber-related component failure. A buyer should inspect the front suspension geometry closely, as the record shows a failure for an offside suspension arm ball joint in 2023 followed by a worn track rod end in 2025. These recurring issues suggest a trend of wear in the steering linkage components. The oil leak noted in the 2025 test requires a physical inspection to determine if it is a minor gasket seep or a more significant leak from the engine housing. Additionally, the offside front tyre should be checked for structural sidew damage and the rear registration plate replaced to prevent future failure due to deterioration.
