AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Nissan has 13 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 15,076 miles. The car's low annual usage and high insurance group are also significant factors.
The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 4,982 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage between 2022 and 2023, and a recent spike in 2025.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension advisories (5 items) across 2 separate tests (Jan 2021, Jun 2023) suggest ongoing wear.
- Major failure for windscreen wiper (Jun 2023) indicates a significant safety-critical defect.
- Low annual mileage (4,982 mi/yr) for a 2012 car, with a 2022-2023 period of only 1,062 miles, is a red flag for potential long-term inactivity.
- High insurance group (44–47) means expensive premiums for the buyer.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-19 provides peace of mind for immediate roadworthiness.
- No mileage discrepancies or fraud detected in the MOT history.
