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 17 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 16,365 miles. The extremely low annual mileage for its age, combined with high insurance costs, presents significant buying risks.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,241 miles per year, with a significant spike in usage from 2023 onwards (13,075 miles in 12 months) after years of minimal driving.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension advisories across 9 tests (Mar 2019–Apr 2024) indicate chronic neglect.
- Brake pad wear advisories on 6 separate tests (Mar 2023–Apr 2024) suggest a pattern of deferred maintenance.
- Major suspension failure on 2019-03-18 and subsequent recurring advisories point to systemic issues.
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,241 mi/yr) for an 18-year-old vehicle is a major red flag for potential long-term neglect.
Working in its favour
- Recent clean MOT pass on 2024-12-06 with no failures or advisories.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures, showing responsive ownership.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle.
