Our Verdict
This 2010 Nissan Cube carries significan
When inspecting this vehicle, verify that all advisory items noted in the December 2025 test—specifically the rear inner sill corrosion and tyre cracking—have been addressed or accounted for in the pricing. Check the service history thoroughly to see how frequently suspension components, brakes, and tyres have been replaced over its 162,831-mile life. Negotiate hard on price given the repeated MOT failures logged in recent years, including the 2024 test where multiple suspension ball joints and parking brake defects required rectification.
Running costs for this 1.5-litre petrol Nissan Cube will be shaped by its age and high mileage. Fuel economy should be modest for a boxy urban vehicle, while insurance falls into a moderate group for a Japanese import-style hatchback. Maintenance costs may be higher than average due to the need to monitor older suspension bushes, corrosion on the rear inner sills, and lighting or tyre compliance.
Pay close attention to the rear integral body structure and inner sills, which were flagged for corrosion in both November and December 2025. Inspect the tyres carefully, noting the December 2025 advisory for perishing on the nearside rear tyre and the previous November 2025 failure regarding mismatched tyre sizes across the rear axle (195/55/16 versus 195/60/15). Check the front headlamps for the recurring 'product on the lens/frosty' advisory, and thoroughly test the parking brake, position lamps, and anti-roll bar linkages which have caused test failures in past years.
First registered in December 2010 and finished in grey, this 1.5-litre petrol Nissan Cube has covered 162,831 miles as of its December 2025 MOT test. Its test history shows a recurring pattern of initial failures followed by subsequent passes, with notable items including mismatched rear tyres, inner sill corrosion, and past suspension component wear.
No aggregate reliability data is available for the Nissan Cube, making individual MOT history checks especially crucial for this model.
