2012 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · VE12 XOV

The 2012 Nissan Juke presents a stable maintenance trend, currently holding a valid MOT certificate following a pass on 31 January 2026 at 145,080 miles. The tester recorded zero defects or advisories on this most recent test, mirroring the clean bills of health received in August 2023 and September 2024. Anomalous failed entries appear on the same dates as the 2024 and 2026 passes, both listing no defects, which typically indicates a test abandonment or a duplicate administrative entry rather than a mechanical failure. The vehicle has consistently met the required standard at its last three test appointments, indicating a stable condition with no recurring mechanical issues. Accumulating 145,080 miles over fourteen years equates to roughly 10,363 miles annually, a typical rate for a vehicle of this age. The mileage progression shows consistent, moderate use rather than prolonged standing. Between the August 2023 test at 131,949 miles and the September 2024 test at 139,305 miles, the Juke covered 7,356 miles over thirteen months. A further 5,775 miles were added in the sixteen months leading to the January 2026 test. This steady accumulation suggests regular driving without the severe wear associated with high-mileage fleet use or the moisture-related corrosion risks of a car left idle for extended periods. With no recurring faults, structural corrosion, or mechanical advisories flagged across the recorded history, a buyer should focus on standard high-mileage wear items during a physical inspection. At 145,080 miles, the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers will have endured significant cyclic loading; check for cracking, leaking dampers, or deteriorated rubber. Inspect the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, and examine the exhaust system for corrosion, particularly around the joints and mounting points. While the MOT record implies diligent basic upkeep from the previous keeper, a thorough assessment of the drivetrain, tyre condition, and structural underbody remains essential to verify the ongoing integrity of this aging compact crossover.
