AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Nissan has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 17,143 miles. The history of multiple failures and advisories on the same components indicates a reactive maintenance approach.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage with 17,143 miles over 14 years, averaging 6,007 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 5 tests (Jun 2019, Jun 2020, Jun 2022, Jun 2023, Feb 2026) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring brake pad and disc advisories across 5 tests (Jun 2022, Jun 2023, Feb 2026) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
- Recurring anti-roll bar link advisories across 3 tests (Jun 2022, Jun 2023, Feb 2026) point to a structural weakness.
- Major failure for windscreen wiper (Jun 2026) and subsequent advisory for anti-roll bar link (Feb 2026) show recent issues.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-15, offering peace of mind for the next 3 years.
- Consistent, normal mileage for its age (6,007 miles/year), suggesting light use.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT history.
