2013 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · LO13 AAX

The 2013 Nissan Juke shows a passed MOT from 11 December 2025 at 78,680 miles, but that pass followed a same-day failure for an insecure offside front headlamp bulb with incorrect beam aim, plus a severely deteriorated nearside front lower anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover and front tyres worn to 2.5 to 3mm on the edges. The maintenance trend is broadly stable with minor consumable neglect rather than escalating structural decay. Prior tests in September 2024 and September 2023 passed with only wiper blades, washer faults, and non-excessive oil leaks noted, so no worsening mechanical crisis is evident across the record. Recorded mileage of 78,680 against roughly 13 years of age equates to about 6,052 miles per year, a typical figure for this model year. The jump from 70,645 miles on 18 September 2023 to 75,039 miles on 11 September 2023 is anomalous and suggests a clerical error or late-logged prior use rather than genuine rapid accumulation. From that point to 76,164 miles in September 2024 and 78,680 in December 2025, annual use stayed low at under 3,000 miles, indicating light recent running with likely periods of standing. A buyer should physically verify the nearside front lower anti-roll bar ball joint, where the tester flagged a severely deteriorated dust cover in December 2025; exposed ball joints accelerate suspension wear if moisture ingress occurs. Both front tyres showed edge wear at 2.5 to 3mm and require replacement before legal limit breach. The December 2025 headlamp bulb was insecure with wrong beam aim, pointing to careless lamp maintenance. Recurring September 2023 faults included defective wiper blades, a failed offside washer, and non-excessive engine and gearbox oil leaks; the leaks persisted across both 2023 tests but drew no advisory in 2024, implying they stayed minor. Inspect underneath for fresh gearbox or engine seepage, confirm wiper and washer operation, and check the front suspension bushes and steering joints for play before purchase.
