AI verdict AVOID 36/100

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

This 2005 Nissan has 21 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 17,412 miles. The vehicle's extremely low mileage and a recent MOT expiry date of 2027-04-23 are contradictory and highly suspicious.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 5,472 miles per year, with a significant anomaly of only 21 miles recorded between June 2023 and May 2024.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jun 2025): Nearside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))
  • DANGEROUS defect: Tyres worn close to legal limit (Jun 2020) escalated to dangerous failure (Jun 2025).
  • DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting excessively corroded (May 2022) escalated to dangerous failure (Jun 2023).
  • DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (May 2022) escalated to dangerous failure (Jun 2023).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
