2014 Nissan Juke 1.2L Petrol · LN64 UCM

The 2014 Nissan Juke presents a stable and currently clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 15 April 2026 at 72,282 miles passed with zero defects, indicating that the immediate safety-critical issues flagged in previous years have been addressed. Looking at the trend, the vehicle's maintenance pattern has clearly improved. The 2022 test at 50,053 miles was the high point of concern, with advisories across all three brake pipes, worn rear pads, a worn wishbone bush, and multiple perishing tyres. By October 2023 at 58,343 miles, the brake pipe corrosion had reduced to just the nearside front, and the suspension bush wear had disappeared from the record. The June 2025 test at 69,112 miles showed a slight regression with a deteriorated CV boot and renewed brake pipe corrosion, but the April 2026 clean sheet confirms these were rectified. The trajectory is one of active repair rather than neglect. The mileage accumulation of approximately 6,024 miles per year over twelve years is entirely typical for a vehicle of this age and does not raise any red flags. The intervals between tests show steady, incremental use rather than prolonged standing or sudden high-mileage bursts. The jump from 63,572 miles in July 2024 to 69,112 miles by June 2025 represents roughly 5,500 miles over eleven months, which is consistent with regular daily driving. There are no suspicious gaps or anomalies in the recorded odometer readings that would suggest clocking or extended periods off the road. Despite the clean current certificate, a buyer should conduct a focused physical inspection of the underbody and suspension. The recurring theme across the 2022 and 2023 records is corrosion on the brake pipes, specifically noted as being covered in grease or other material, which suggests the pipes may have been coated rather than properly replaced. A thorough check of the offside rear and offside front pipe runs is advisable to confirm whether the corrosion was surface-level or has compromised structural integrity. The nearside front inner CV boot was flagged as severely deteriorated in June 2025, so the joint should be inspected for play or contamination. The 2022 advisory for the offside front wishbone rear bush also warrants a visual check, as worn bushes can cause vague steering and uneven tyre wear even if the current MOT passed. Tyre condition has been a recurring minor advisory, with perishing noted on nearside and offside rear tyres in both 2022 and 2025, suggesting the vehicle may spend time outdoors or that previous owners deferred replacement of age-dated rubber. A close inspection of the sidewall condition and date codes on the current set is recommended.
