2012 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · PE12 RKF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a pass in early May 2026, but the maintenance history reveals a trend of reactive repairs rather than proactive care. While the most recent test at 55,926 miles failed due to a worn nearside front anti-roll bar ball joint and perished rear tyres, these issues were rectified immediately to secure a subsequent pass. The recurring nature of suspension and tyre defects suggests that components are only addressed once they reach a point of failure during the annual inspection. At 55,926 miles, this 14-year-old Juke shows exceptionally low mileage, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. There is a significant gap in records between October 2024 (46,931 miles) and May 2026 (55,926 miles), where the vehicle covered nearly 9,000 miles in nineteen months. This low usage pattern explains the visible degradation of rubber components, specifically the persistent sidewall cracking on tyres noted consistently from 2022 through 2026. A buyer must perform a thorough inspection of the suspension system, as the record shows multiple worn bushes on the offside front arm and a failed anti-roll bar ball joint. The 2024 report of a central front oil leak requires a physical check to ensure the leak has not worsened or affected auxiliary components like the belts. Additionally, given the history of thin rear brake pads and pitted discs in 2023, the entire braking assembly should be inspected for uneven wear or seized calipers, which often affects low-mileage vehicles that sit for long periods.
