This 2012 Nissan has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 60,102 miles. The car also shows suspiciously low mileage for its first few years, which warrants careful investigation.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage (452 mi/yr equivalent) before August 2017, but normal usage (10,151 mi/yr) thereafter, with a significant drop in recent years.
Things to check

- Recurring brake system advisories (Jun 2024, Jun 2026).

Working in its favour
