2011 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · SP11 RNF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance trend indicates a concerning decline in standards during the most recent inspection. While it passed the MOT on January 29 2026 at 146,423 miles, it failed just one day prior with multiple critical safety defects. The tester identified a fractured nearside rear coil spring, corroded offside front brake pipe, and two tyres failing tread depth requirements. These failures suggest that the previous owner neglected essential preventative maintenance and consumable replacements until forced by a formal test failure. At 146,423 miles over 15 years, the Juke averages approximately 9,760 miles per year, which aligns with typical UK road usage for its age. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with roughly 8,000 miles driven between January 2024 and January 2025, and another 8,000 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. While the mileage accumulation is steady, the sudden appearance of mechanical and suspension failures in the latest test suggests that the vehicle is reaching a stage where components are nearing their end life simultaneously. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension and braking systems. The recurring issues with uneven tyre wear noted in both 2024 and 2026 indicate potential alignment problems or worn shock absorber bushes. The excessive corrosion on the offside front brake pipe flagged in January 2026 is a red flag for general rust on the chassis, which could lead to structural issues if left unchecked. Given the fractured coil spring, the buyer should check the remaining suspension springs for similar fatigue and ensure the recent repairs have not caused secondary damage to the mounting points.
