2018 Nissan Juke 1.5L Diesel · VO68 FVV

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status, having achieved consecutive MOT passes throughout its recorded history. The most recent test in August 2025 at 23,186 miles shows no mechanical failures, though it confirms a persistent trend of age-related degradation. While the mechanical components appear to meet minimum standards, the recurring advisories regarding tyre condition indicate that the vehicle's primary concerns are driven by time rather than annual mileage accumulation. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,900 miles per year. Between September 2021 at 11,936 miles and August 2025 at 23,186 miles, the car covered only 11,250 miles over four years. This consistent low usage suggests the car sits for long periods or performs very short trips. Such low mileage often correlates with the issues seen here, as rubber-based components suffer from dry rot and structural cracking despite having remaining tread depth on the tyres. A buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of all four tyres, as the tester has flagged cracking and perishing on multiple axles consistently since 2022. These defects are a result of UV exposure and lack of movement, meaning the tyres likely require immediate replacement regardless of their tread depth. Because the vehicle travels infrequently, the brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting, which can occur quickly when calipers are not regularly utilised. Additionally, inspect the rubber bushes and suspension components for signs of cracking, as the same environmental factors affecting the tyres often degrade the undercarriage over long periods of inactivity.
