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 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 35,990 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of repeated failures and advisories on critical safety systems warrants significant caution.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 3,958 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 2,271 miles between Mar 2024 and Mar 2025).
Things to check
- Recurring major failures for lights (4 times) and suspension (2 times) across multiple tests.
- Extremely low annual mileage (3,958 miles/yr) suggests minimal use, potentially leading to accelerated component wear.
- High insurance group (44–47) indicates expensive premiums and higher running costs.
- Consistent advisories for exhaust and headlamp issues, escalating to failures, point to systemic neglect.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until March 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures, showing responsive ownership.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests a generally safe vehicle design.
