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

This 2002 Nissan has 27 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 5,711 miles. The vehicle's age and recurring issues with critical components like tyres and CV boots indicate significant underlying problems.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage averaging 1,318 miles/year, with suspiciously low usage before Oct 2021 (106 mi/yr equivalent) and a significant drop in annual usage thereafter.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded on 2023-10-30 and 2025-10-30, indicating severe neglect.
  • DANGEROUS suspension failure on 2025-10-30, a critical safety component for a 24-year-old car.
  • Recurring CV boot advisories (2019, 2023) escalating to MAJOR failures (2023), suggesting chronic neglect.
  • Extremely low mileage (1,318 mi/yr average) raises serious odometer fraud concerns and indicates long periods of inactivity.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2026-11-09, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No recorded mileage decreases or suspiciously round numbers after Oct 2021.
