2012 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · NB52 OWN

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history shows a worsening trend regarding structural and mechanical components. While it passed the test in October 2025 at 107,157 miles, this followed a failure just four days prior at 107,054 miles. The owner successfully addressed the failing offside front track rod end and the excessive corrosion found on both rear brake pipes. However, the 2025 pass left several significant advisories, including corrosion on the rear sub-frame and a corroded offside rear coil spring, alongside a persistent exhaust leak. At 14 years old, the Nissan Juke reflects an average of approximately 7,654 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 12,000 miles covered between September 2023 and September 2024, and another 7,000 miles covered in the following year up to the 2025 test. This steady accumulation suggests the car has not been sitting for long periods, but the consistent mileage has subjected the underbody rubber and metal components to the elements. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the rear sub-frame and exhaust system. The tester noted the sub-frame is corroded but not yet weakened, yet this type of surface rust often progresses to structural integrity issues if not monitored. The corroded offside rear coil spring should also be checked for signs of fatigue or fractures that lead to snapping. Additionally, the minor central exhaust leak recorded in October 2025 requires investigation to ensure it does not worsen into a significant failure in the near, especially given that the front tyres were already noted near the legal limit during that same test.
