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

This 2016 Nissan has 13 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 61,116 miles. The recurring nature of these issues, combined with high mileage, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 12,405 miles per year, with a significant drop in usage between 2021 and 2024, and a recent spike in 2025.

Things to check

  • Dangerous brake failure on 2025-01-16 (112,275 mi) — immediate safety concern.
  • Recurring brake disc wear (2021-08-06, 2024-07-31) — persistent safety issue.
  • Recurring tyre wear (2019-08-05, 2023-08-04) — consistent wear pattern.
  • High annual mileage (12,405 mi/yr) — accelerated component wear.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-16 — no immediate retest required.
  • No mileage discrepancies or fraud detected — consistent readings.
  • No recurring dangerous defects — all past failures were addressed.
  • Recent MOT pass (2025-12-31) — current roadworthiness confirmed.
