This 2018 Nissan has 11 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 38,872 miles. While it has a long MOT, the consistent wear on critical components suggests a need for immediate investment.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before April 2022 (278 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage averaging 9,357 miles/year, which is a significant red flag for potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 11 tests (Apr 2022, Apr 2023, Apr 2024, Apr 2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring brake pad advisories across 5 tests (Apr 2022, Apr 2023, Apr 2024, Apr 2025) suggest a pattern of neglect.
- Major failure for windscreen washer not working on 2022-04-21, a basic safety system.
- Suspiciously low mileage recorded before April 2022 (278 mi/yr equivalent) raises serious odometer integrity concerns.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-06, providing significant peace of mind for the next three years.
- No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, indicating no immediate safety hazards.
- Consistent annual mileage post-April 2022, averaging 9,357 miles/year, aligning with typical UK usage.
- No recurring failures on critical systems like engine, transmission, or steering components.
