2013 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · VE63 EYG

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend of reactive rather than proactive care. While it passed its most recent test on 31 July 2025 at 66,209 miles, this followed a failure just five days prior involving multiple safety components. The transition from a clean record in 2023 to a series of mechanical failures in 2025 suggests that the owner is only addressing faults once they result in an immediate MOT failure threshold. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 66,209 miles represents a low average of approximately 5,100 miles per year. This low usage typically suggests less wear on the engine and drivetrain, but it often accelerates the degradation of rubber-based components. Between September 2023 at 53,984 miles and September 2024 at 60,732 miles, the car covered roughly 6,700 miles, yet this is where suspension and braking components began to show signs of age-related fatigue. A buyer must conduct a close inspection of the rear sub-frame, as the tester flagged it for corrosion in both the 2024 and 2025 tests. Although currently noted as not seriously weakened, structural corrosion on an older, low-mileage vehicle often indicates long periods of standing or exposure to salt. The 2025 failure for rear brake pads under 1.5mm and pitted discs indicates that the braking system was neglected until it reached a critical state. Attention should also be paid to the nearside lower suspension arm bush and the offside track rod end, which have previously shown signs of play and excessive wear.
