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 20 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 9,884 miles. While it has a long MOT, the history of brake-related advisories and failures warrants careful inspection.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 3,741 miles per year, with a significant gap in MOT history between 2015 and 2020.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake system advisories and failures across multiple tests (Jan 2020, Feb 2022, Feb 2024).
  • Parking brake lever has excessive movement (MAJOR failure Jan 2022, Feb 2024, Feb 2026).
  • Engine oil advisory recurring across 3 separate tests (Jan 2020, Feb 2023, Feb 2026).
  • Low annual mileage (3,741 miles/yr) suggests long periods of inactivity, potentially harming components.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until February 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No DANGEROUS defects remain unresolved since the initial tyre failure in Jan 2020.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
