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

This 2008 Nissan has 26 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 32,622 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly anomalous, with a 50,450-mile discrepancy on a single retest, indicating potential fraud.

The MOT history shows a 50,450-mile discrepancy on 06 Mar 2014, and a 50,454-mile discrepancy on the same date, which is highly suspicious and suggests potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • MOT history shows 5 failures and 9 recurring advisories on critical safety systems like suspension, steering, and tyres.
  • A 50,450-mile discrepancy on 06 Mar 2014 retest is a clear red flag for odometer fraud.
  • The vehicle has a deeply troubled MOT history, indicating significant and recurring mechanical issues.
  • The recurring nature of suspension, steering, and tyre advisories points to chronic neglect or poor maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-11-27, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) is present in the provided data.
  • The vehicle has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, suggesting good inherent safety features.
