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 22 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 12,540 miles. The vehicle's low annual mileage for its age, combined with a 2021 service gap, raises significant concerns about its maintenance and overall condition.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage (6,776 miles/year) for its 18 years, with a significant drop in usage between 2019 and 2023, and a 2021 service gap, which is highly unusual for a vehicle of this age.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Rear Brakes imbalanced (MAJOR failure 2026-03-10).
- Recurring Tyres: Six advisories for worn tyres across 4 tests (2018, 2022, 2025, 2026).
- Recurring Suspension: Offside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint (MAJOR failure 2025-03-10).
- Recurring Lights: Three major failures and five related advisories (2018, 2023, 2026).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until March 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No mileage anomalies or fraud detected in the MOT history.
- No recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering.
- Consistent annual mileage increases since 2019, despite low overall numbers.
