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 17 MOT tests on record with a 65% pass rate and 43,849 miles. While mileage is consistent, the high insurance group and numerous past failures warrant a thorough inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 11,284 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but annual usage has significantly decreased since 2018.
Things to check
- Recurring brake advisories (Aug 2018, Aug 2022) and a DANGEROUS brake failure (Aug 2017) indicate chronic brake wear.
- Recurring suspension advisories (Aug 2017, Aug 2019) and anti-roll bar linkage wear (Aug 2020) suggest ongoing suspension issues.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Aug 2017, Aug 2019, Aug 2020) and a DANGEROUS tyre failure (Aug 2017) point to consistent tyre neglect.
- The car has been through 5 failures and 12 advisories, showing a pattern of reactive rather than proactive maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no signs of tampering or unusual spikes.
- Valid MOT until August 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No major structural corrosion or chassis failures recorded in the MOT history.
- The vehicle has a consistent service history, despite the recurring issues.
