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

This 2011 Nissan has 13 MOT tests on record with a 92% pass rate and 21,856 miles. The car's age and high insurance group are significant factors.

The vehicle shows exceptionally low annual mileage of 5,167 miles/year, with a significant 2019 service gap and inconsistent usage patterns.

Things to check

  • 2019 MOT gap indicates a period of unrecorded use or SORN.
  • Low annual mileage (5,167 mi/yr) for a 15-year-old car is a concern.
  • High insurance group (44–47) means higher running costs and insurance premiums.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
  • Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for several years.
  • No major recurring failures or dangerous defects in the MOT history.
