2014 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · SL64 ODX

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance trend shows a slight shift toward reactive repairs in the most recent inspection. The final MOT conducted in January 2022 at 56,076 miles identified three distinct issues including pitted and scored brake discs, a non-excessive oil leak, and a defective front wiper blade. While these did not result in a failure, they indicate that the vehicle is beginning to show age-related wear after a period of relatively clean records. The mileage profile is notably low for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,700 miles per annum. Data shows a significant stagnation in usage between November 2020 and January 2022, where the car covered only 560 miles in over fourteen months. This gap, combined with the lack of recorded mileage since the 2022 tests, suggests the vehicle may have sat stationary for extended periods. Such low-frequency use can often lead to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and flat-spotted tyres despite the low mechanical mileage on the drivetrain. A buyer should specifically investigate the oil leak noted in early 2022 to determine if it is a minor gasket seep or a more significant seal failure. Given the previous pitting on the brake discs, a physical inspection of the caliper condition is necessary to ensure the pistons have not seized due to periods of inactivity. The 2018 advisory regarding uneven tyre wear also suggests a past alignment issue, which warrants a check of the suspension bushes and tracking geometry to ensure no structural play is currently causing premature tyre degradation.
