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

This 2001 Nissan has 11 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 16,072 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with its poor maintenance record and unexplained mileage anomalies, makes it an extremely high-risk purchase.

The MOT history shows a critical 23,000-mile discrepancy on 03 Mar 2015, followed by a 34,844-mile jump before Feb 2016, indicating severe data integrity issues or potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • MOT expired 2017-03-04; vehicle has no valid MOT certificate.
  • Mileage shows a 23,000-mile discrepancy on 03 Mar 2015, a major red flag.
  • Brakes failed 5 times (Mar 2010, Feb 2011, Mar 2014, Mar 2015, Feb 2016), indicating chronic neglect.
  • Wipers failed twice (Mar 2012, Mar 2014), and handbrake twice (Mar 2012, Mar 2014).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • No positive MOT history for this 25-year-old vehicle.
  • No positive service history or consistent maintenance records.
  • No positive mileage trajectory or recent MOT passes.
