This 2013 Nissan has 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 19,304 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of repeated failures and advisories on critical safety systems warrants a thorough investigation.

The mileage trajectory shows normal annual usage (6,378 mi/yr) until a significant drop in 2021, where 56,894 miles were recorded, then a decrease of 45 miles occurred between the failed and passed tests on 2021-01-09.

Things to check

  • Recurring electrical failures (lights, wipers, washer) across multiple tests.
  • Persistent suspension arm advisories in Jan 2020 and Jan 2024.
  • Major brake failure in Jan 2021, with 7 related advisories.
  • Significant mileage discrepancy on 2021-01-09 (56,894 mi to 56,849 mi).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-30, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent annual mileage (6,378 mi/yr) before 2021, suggesting regular use.
  • No major structural corrosion or dangerous defects flagged in recent tests.
