This 2008 Nissan has 23 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 25,630 miles. The vehicle's very low annual mileage and a recorded mileage decrease raise serious concerns about its true condition and integrity.
A critical mileage anomaly exists: 25,630 miles in March 2011, but only 15,797 miles in March 2012, indicating a possible odometer tampering.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Mar 2011 (25,630 mi) and Mar 2012 (15,797 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
- Mileage decreased from 25,630 miles (Mar 2011) to 15,797 miles (Mar 2012) — possible odometer fraud.
- Recurring major failures in lights (9 times) and tyres (4 times) across multiple MOT tests.
- Dangerous defect recorded for tyres on 2018-11-30, indicating a serious safety hazard.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-09, indicating current roadworthiness despite past issues.
- No recurring major failures in critical safety systems like brakes or steering.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures, showing responsive ownership.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) for a 2008 model is a positive for safety.
