AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2008 Nissan has 26 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 29,908 miles. The recurring nature of these critical safety components, combined with a 21-year-old vehicle, makes it an extremely high-risk purchase.

The mileage trajectory shows a significant drop in annual usage from 97,800 miles in March 2019 to 29,908 miles in May 2011, then a steady increase to 138,239 miles by April 2026.

Things to check

  • May 2011: Major failure for front brake pads and insecure wiper blade.
  • May 2013: Major failure for nearside front coil spring fractured.
  • Recurring suspension advisories from Mar 2020 to Mar 2024, escalating to major failures.
  • Recurring tyre advisories from Mar 2020 to Mar 2025, escalating to major failures.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until April 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory since 2019, no signs of odometer fraud.
  • No recurring failures for engine or transmission systems, which are common for this age.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
