2013 Nissan Juke 1.6L Petrol · YF63 XCW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a shift toward reactive repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in June 2025 at 78,949 miles resulted in a pass with minor advisories regarding fluctuating rear service brakes and a clouded headlamp. This represents a stable trend following a turbulent 2024 period where the car failed due to significant steering and suspension defects, suggesting the owner addressed the critical mechanical failures following that inspection. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a low-use profile, averaging approximately 6,000 miles per year over its thirteen-year life. The data shows a steady progression, with 10,000 miles covered between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 10,000 miles between June 2024 and 2025. This low annual mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, but it increases the likelihood of rubber-based components, such as tyres and suspension bushes, perishing due to age rather than friction-related wear. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the front suspension geometry. The 2024 failure of the nearside front ball joint and the offside track rod end indicates that the steering components are reaching the end of their lifespan and should be checked for further play or perished boots in the joints. Additionally, the 2025 advisory for fluctuating rear brakes suggests the onset of thinned brake discs or a sticking caliper cylinder, which will require monitoring to prevent uneven braking performance. Given the previous failure for perishing tyres in 2024, the sidewalls of the current tyres must be inspected for cracking regardless of the remaining tread depth.
