This 2008 Nissan has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 33,718 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2021-03-19, indicating a significant and unresolved problem.
The vehicle shows normal usage with 33,718 miles over 18 years, averaging 9,204 miles per year, which is consistent with UK driving habits.
Things to check
- MOT FAILED on 2020-03-15 — no subsequent PASS recorded, indicating a critical unresolved safety issue.
- MOT currently NOT VALID (expiry 2021-03-19) — vehicle is not legally roadworthy and has no active MOT certificate.
- Dangerous brake failure recorded on 2020-03-15 — immediate safety risk that was never rectified.
- High insurance group (44–47) — extremely expensive to insure, making it a poor financial choice.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a strong safety record for its age.
- Consistent mileage trajectory — 9,204 miles/year is normal and shows no fraud or unusual patterns.
- No recurring major failures — the single MOT failure in 2020 was not repeated in subsequent tests.
