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

This 2001 Nissan has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 29,603 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of wear suggests substantial upcoming maintenance costs.

The vehicle shows normal annual usage (9,889 mi/yr) until a significant spike in 2010, with 27,501 miles added in just 3 months, followed by a return to normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring advisories on tyres (6), lights (5), windscreen (5), brakes (4), and suspension (3) across multiple tests.
  • Significant mileage spike of 27,501 miles in 3 months (Dec 2010) suggests a period of high stress or neglect.
  • Three failures with no defect details (Aug 2006, Jul 2008, Dec 2010) indicate unresolved issues.
  • The vehicle has been off the road since 2015 (SORN status), raising questions about its current condition.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, normal annual mileage (9,889 mi/yr) for its age, indicating regular use.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT certificate, albeit with a long history of advisories.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) provides a strong safety foundation for a 25-year-old vehicle.
