2013 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · WJ13 ADZ

The 2013 Nissan Juke’s most recent MOT test on 27 October 2025 at 55,369 miles confirms it remains roadworthy, with no defects or advisories recorded across the past five annual tests. This consistency suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a basic level, though the absence of any failures or advisories does not imply thorough servicing—only that it passed the minimum DVSA checks. The last test was conducted just under ten months ago, which is acceptable but not ideal for a vehicle of this age, as it may have accumulated wear since then. The repeated clean passes without advisories could indicate either diligent attention to MOT-specific components or, conversely, that more critical maintenance—such as fluid changes, suspension servicing, or corrosion checks—has been neglected. The recorded mileage of 55,369 miles over nearly 13 years equates to an average of around 4,259 miles annually, which is unusually low for a vehicle of this age. The gap between tests is consistent, with roughly 6,000 miles logged between each MOT, suggesting the car has either been lightly used or stored for extended periods. Notably, there was a single retest in October 2022 at 38,853 miles, where the vehicle failed before passing—though no defects were recorded, which implies either a minor administrative oversight or an unusually quick resolution. The lack of significant mileage jumps or extended periods of inactivity makes it difficult to assess accelerated wear, but the low annual mileage could mean suspension bushes, brake pads, and tyres have experienced less stress than average. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an independent inspection of high-wear components that are not routinely tested under the MOT scheme. The suspension—particularly the rear coil springs and bushes—should be examined for excessive play, corrosion, or cracking, as these are common failure points in this model. Brake discs and calipers, while not flagged in past tests, may show uneven wear or binding, especially if the vehicle has been stored for prolonged periods. Structural integrity is another concern; the chassis rails, wheel arches, and subframe should be checked for corrosion, particularly around the wheel housings and suspension mounts, as this is a frequent issue in older Juke models. Finally, fluid levels—brake, steering, and engine oil—should be verified, as their condition is not reflected in the MOT record. The absence of advisories does not guarantee these areas are sound, so a thorough mechanical check is essential.
