2014 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · OL02 ASH

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. The most recent test on 24 November 2025 at 109,835 miles showed a failure due to an excessively worn offside front suspension arm ball joint and a frayed nearside front seat belt. While the vehicle passed immediately after these repairs, the recurrence of mechanical faults suggests that components are only addressed once they reach a point of failure. The mileage pattern remains consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 9,153 miles per year over the 12-year period. This rate of use aligns with typical UK mileage for a Nissan Juke. There is a significant gap of 11,177 miles recorded between the December 2024 test at 98,658 miles and the November 2025 test at 109,835 miles. This steady accumulation suggests the car is used regularly, which generally helps prevent the seizing of brake components and degradation of rubber seals in the braking system. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension, as the previously flagged ball joint failure indicates that other bushings and links may be nearing the end of their service life. The failure in December 2024 regarding an inoperative Malfunction Indicator Lamp is also a point of concern; the buyer must perform a diagnostic scan to ensure no hidden fault codes remain stored in the engine management system. Furthermore, the 2023 advisory regarding a worn nearside front tyre suggests potential alignment issues or worn shock absorber dampers, which should be verified with a check of the current tread patterns across all four tyres to ensure no uneven wear has developed developed since the last inspection.
