AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Nissan has 18 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 37,271 miles. While many issues were resolved, the high insurance group and known model weaknesses present significant buying risks.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,362 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though annual usage has varied significantly over its 17-year life.
Things to check
- Recurring suspension and steering failures/advisories across multiple tests (e.g., Dec 2020, Dec 2021, Nov 2023).
- Four major light failures (Dec 2020, Dec 2021, Nov 2023) indicate a history of electrical and safety issues.
- Consistent advisories for tyres (Dec 2020, Dec 2021, Nov 2025) suggest a long-standing wear item.
- The 2001 Nissan Sentra PCM ground wire failure and 1996 Nissan Hardbody timing chain guides disintegrating are known model weaknesses.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-06, indicating current roadworthiness and recent safety checks.
- Consistent, normal mileage for its 17-year age, suggesting regular use without long periods of inactivity.
- All major failures were immediately rectified and passed retests, showing responsive owner maintenance.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the provided MOT history.
