This 2008 Nissan has 20 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 44,603 miles. While mileage is low for its age, the high insurance group and numerous past failures warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,928 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, though a significant 2022 service gap is noted.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension failures (Jan 2023, Jan 2024) and advisories (Jan 2023, Jan 2024) indicate chronic wear.
- Brake disc advisories (Jan 2024, Jan 2025, Jan 2026) and a light defect (Jan 2025) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
- The 2022 MOT gap suggests the vehicle may have been off-road or not maintained during that period.
- High insurance group (44–47) means significantly higher premiums for this vehicle.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
- Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (6,928 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
