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 73% pass rate and 35,213 miles. This, combined with recurring steering and lighting issues, makes it a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows a 4-year MOT gap (Jan 2018–Feb 2022) with unverified mileage, followed by suspiciously low annual usage (e.g., 256 miles from Feb 2025 to Jan 2026).
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jan 2026): Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))
- Mileage anomaly: 4-year MOT gap (Jan 2018–Feb 2022) with unverified mileage.
- Mileage inconsistency: Unusually high mileage jump before Jan 2018, then suspiciously low usage.
- Recurring steering faults: Offside Front Track rod end ball joint excessive play (Jun 2024 FAIL).
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
