This 2012 Nissan has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 50,786 miles. The high insurance group and known model weaknesses in the community knowledge add to the caution.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,272 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures (Aug 2022, Sep 2023) and advisories (Sep 2025) indicate ongoing wear.
  • Recurring brake pad advisories (Aug 2022, Sep 2023, Sep 2025) suggest a need for regular replacement.
  • High insurance group (44–47) means significantly higher premiums for this vehicle.
  • Community knowledge reports high-risk failures for Nissan models, including timing chain issues.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until September 2026, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no anomalies, indicating genuine usage and no fraud.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, showing immediate rectification of failures.
