2014 Nissan Juke 1.2L Petrol · YL14 ENC

The Nissan Juke currently holds no valid MOT, having failed its most recent test on 26 September 2025 at 96,576 miles. The maintenance trend over the last two years is clearly deteriorating. A clean pass in April 2024 at 89,322 miles gave way to a failure with multiple mechanical and safety defects just seventeen months later. This is not a stable or improving record. It suggests the vehicle was driven with known faults or that basic servicing was neglected between tests. The mileage accumulation is broadly typical for a 2014 vehicle, averaging just over 8,000 miles per year across its life. However, the jump from the April 2024 pass at 89,322 miles to the September 2025 failure at 96,576 miles represents 7,254 miles in that final period. That is a normal annual rate, yet the car accumulated enough wear in that window to fail on brake pads, brake discs, suspension bushes, and tyres simultaneously. The gap between the December 2022 pass at 84,143 miles and the April 2024 pass at 89,322 miles shows a slower accumulation of 5,179 miles over sixteen months, which may indicate lighter use or a period of reduced driving before the final MOT attempt. The September 2025 failure reveals a pattern of deferred maintenance on critical braking and suspension components. Rear brake pads were below the 1.5 mm legal minimum, and both front brake discs were flagged as worn, pitted, or scored. A buyer should inspect the entire braking system in person, checking disc thickness, pad material remaining, and whether the rear calipers are binding, as uneven rear wear often points to a caliper fault rather than simple pad degradation. The Offside Front Macpherson strut pin or bush was flagged as worn with slight grabbing, indicating suspension wear that will affect tyre contact and steering precision. Both front and rear wiper blades were defective or missing, which, while minor, reinforces the impression that routine consumable replacements were overlooked. Tyre condition is another recurring concern. The Offside Rear tyre was flagged for cracking or perishing in both February 2022 and September 2025, suggesting that particular corner may have a slow puncture, alignment issue, or simply that the tyres are aged and have not been replaced on a proper cycle. A buyer should check all four tyres for sidewall cracking, uneven tread depth, and date stamps to determine age. The combination of worn suspension bushes, degraded brakes, and perished tyres points to a vehicle that needs a thorough mechanical inspection and likely immediate expenditure on brakes, suspension components, and rubber parts before it can be considered roadworthy.
