2016 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · N5 BCY

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows signs of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in July 2025 at 40,135 miles resulted in a pass following an initial failure for insufficient washer fluid and an obstructed inspection due to a child seat. While these issues are minor and consumable-related, the 2024 record indicates that the vehicle previously struggled with mechanical inconsistencies that required immediate attention to meet compliance standards. At 10 years old, this de-registered Nissan Juke has covered significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. This low usage pattern is consistent across the records between 2022 and 2025, where the vehicle covered only 15,579 miles over three-year intervals. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, it can also lead to age-related degradation, such as dry-rotted rubber, perished seals, or seized brake calipers if the car has sat stationary for extended periods. A buyer must specifically inspect the braking system and tyres. The August 2024 test at 35,422 miles flagged fluctuating service brakes on both front wheels, which often indicates warped discs or sticking pistons; these should be checked for uneven pad wear or vibration. Additionally, the offside front tyre was noted as being worn on the edge near the legal limit, suggesting a potential alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Given the low mileage, a physical inspection of the suspension rubber for cracks is essential to ensure the age-related components have not suffered from environmental fatigue.
