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

This 2013 Nissan has 11 MOT tests on record with a 91% pass rate and 19,505 miles. The mileage history shows suspiciously low usage for its age, and recurring advisories for tyres and brakes warrant careful inspection.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Aug 2020 (134 mi/yr equivalent), followed by consistent but below-average annual usage of ~5,000 miles per year.

Things to check

  • Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low mileage recorded before Aug 2020 (134 mi/yr equivalent).
  • High insurance group: 44–47 out of 50, indicating very high insurance costs.
  • Engine-specific risks: 1.5L petrol engine prone to head gasket failure and timing chain issues.

Working in its favour

  • Strong MOT pass record: 7 of 8 tests passed, with no dangerous defects recorded.
  • Long MOT validity: Valid MOT until September 2026, offering peace of mind for two years.
  • Consistent recent passes: No failures or dangerous defects in the last 3 years of MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP rating: 5/5 stars (2017), indicating a high level of safety for its time.
