AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Nissan has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 29,560 miles. While these were addressed, the high insurance group and known model weaknesses in the Nissan community warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistent annual usage averaging 8,333 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal and regular driving.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension failures (Sep 2020, Sep 2023) and advisories (Sep 2022) suggest ongoing wear.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Oct 2021, Sep 2022) and a DANGEROUS defect (Sep 2022) indicate a history of poor tyre maintenance.
- High insurance group (44–47) means higher running costs and potential resale challenges.
- Community-reported high-risk issues for Nissan models (e.g., timing chain, CVT) are a broader concern.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Consistent annual mileage of 8,333 miles/year, well below UK average, suggests light use.
- All MOT failures were immediately rectified, demonstrating responsible owner maintenance.
- No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects were left unresolved for extended periods.
