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 16 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 26,872 miles. While mileage is consistent, the high insurance group and known model-specific issues warrant a thorough investigation.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,134 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a 2021 service gap is noted.
Things to check
- Recurring major failures in suspension (ball joint, track rod) and lighting (headlamp, repeater) across multiple tests.
- Five major failures for 'Lights' and three for 'Engine/Oil' in 12 MOT tests indicate systemic neglect.
- Consistent pattern of exhaust advisories and coil spring failures, suggesting chronic wear.
- Dangerous tyre defect recorded in Jan 2022, though immediately rectified, highlights past maintenance issues.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
- Valid MOT until January 2027, offering immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 8,134 miles/year, aligning with UK usage.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
