2016 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · VF16 FCZ

The vehicle's overall roadworthiness is currently failing, as evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 2026-01-14, which failed on 84,926 miles. The test results indicate a consistent pattern of maintenance gaps and recurring structural issues, particularly concerning the suspension and brakes, suggesting that basic upkeep has been skipped. The maintenance trend is not improving; rather, the vehicle has been tested at significantly lower mileage intervals, with the most recent failure occurring at 84,926 miles on 2024-01-17, indicating that the vehicle has not been serviced since approximately 2023. The mileage pattern shows a significant acceleration of consumption over the last two years, rising from 72,252 miles on 2023-01-20 to 84,926 miles on 2024-01-17, while the previous test on 2026-01-14 was recorded at 111,700 miles. This rapid accumulation suggests that the vehicle has been driven at high speeds for extended periods or that the owner has not maintained the mechanical components, leading to accelerated wear on the suspension and brakes. The gap between the 2023 and 2024 tests highlights a lack of preventative maintenance, as the vehicle has not been tested at the same mileage level since 2023. Given the recurring faults and structural issues flagged in the MOT history, the buyer must inspect the vehicle for corrosion on suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust components, as well as for wear on rear and front suspension arm pins and bushings. The failure on the 2024 test specifically points to a separation or partial failure of the rear tyre structure, which is a critical structural risk. The buyer should verify the condition of the rear brake pipes and the front suspension arm pins, ensuring that no excessive movement is present, as these are the most likely points of failure given the history of failed tests.
