2021 Nissan Juke Tekna DIG-T S-A 1.0L Petrol · LM54 ABS

A lone tyre advisory – a near‑side rear nail noted in the 2024‑09‑18 test – is the only blemish on an otherwise spotless MOT record, and the vehicle cleared its most recent inspection on 2025‑11‑07 without any defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness trend over the two recorded tests. At 51,206 mi the Juke averages just over 10 000 mi per annum, a mileage rate that sits squarely within normal usage for a five‑year‑old compact SUV. There are no gaps in the MOT chronology, so the recorded mileage reflects steady, year‑on‑year use rather than prolonged storage or sudden high‑kilometre bursts, which means wear on consumables such as tyres, brakes and suspension components will be in line with typical expectations for this age and mileage. When you inspect the vehicle, give particular attention to the near‑side rear tyre. Look for any puncture repair plates, bulges, sidewall cuts or uneven tread wear that might have resulted from the recorded nail. During a short test‑drive, feel for vibration at speeds above 50 mph, a pulling sensation to the left, or a thumping noise over road imperfections – all signs that the tyre or wheel may be compromised. Verify that the tyre pressure matches the manufacturer’s specification and that the wheel is correctly balanced. Beyond the tyre, the MOT history shows no faults in suspension, brakes or emissions, but with just over 50 000 mi it is prudent to listen for any clunk or knock when traversing bumps (possible worn bushings or ball joints), monitor the brake pedal for any judder or pull to one side (indicative of uneven disc wear or caliper binding), and check for any unusual exhaust rumble that could hint at a developing leak. A thorough visual inspection of the under‑body for rust, especially around the wheel arches and sub‑frame, will confirm that the vehicle’s structural integrity remains sound.
