2014 Nissan Juke 1.2L Petrol · SK64 FXZ

The 2014 Nissan Juke’s most recent MOT on April 11, 2025, confirms it passed without any recorded defects, though the test was conducted at 61,970 miles—just 10,341 miles shy of the 70,000-mile interval before the next mandatory inspection. This clean history over five consecutive tests suggests no recurring mechanical failures, but the lack of advisories or defects does not preclude hidden wear. The vehicle’s roadworthiness remains technically compliant as of the latest test, though the extended gap since April 2025 (nearly 15 months) means a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection before relying on the MOT’s snapshot. The recorded mileage of 61,970 miles over 12 years—approximately 5,164 miles annually—indicates unusually light usage for a vehicle of this age, particularly when compared to typical UK annual averages. The most notable pattern is the consistent 6-8 month intervals between tests, with no abrupt mileage spikes or prolonged gaps suggesting neglect. For instance, the jump from 44,745 miles in July 2022 to 51,978 miles in July 2023 (7,233 miles in a year) is modest, while the final 6,342 miles between April 2024 and April 2025 were covered in just 12 months. This stability implies either regular, low-intensity use or periods of inactivity, which could affect fluid levels, tyre pressure consistency, and minor corrosion development. Given the absence of advisories or defects in the MOT history, the primary focus for a prospective buyer should centre on high-wear components that are not routinely tested. The suspension—particularly the rear coil springs and bushes—should be examined for uneven sagging or excessive play, as these are common points of failure in this model after 12 years. Brake discs and pads, while not flagged in past tests, warrant inspection for uneven wear or binding calipers, especially if the vehicle has experienced sudden stops or heavy loads. Structural integrity, particularly around the wheel arches and sills, should be checked for corrosion, as prolonged low-mileage periods can accelerate rust development in exposed areas. Finally, fluid levels in the engine, transmission, and differential should be verified, as standing vehicles are prone to degraded fluids that may not have been topped up.
