AI verdict AVOID 26/100

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

This 2005 Nissan has 24 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 27,742 miles. The mileage trajectory is also highly suspicious, indicating periods of very low or no usage.

The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Aug 2016 (280 mi/yr equivalent) and Oct 2018 (337 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant drop in usage from 2019 onwards.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded in Jun 2023 and Jul 2025, indicating critical safety neglect.
  • Recurring major suspension failures (coil springs, track rod ends) across multiple tests, showing systemic structural weakness.
  • Persistent advisories for engine oil and suspension arm wear, suggesting chronic neglect of critical components.
  • Mileage anomalies: Suspiciously low usage before Aug 2016 (280 mi/yr equivalent) and Oct 2018 (337 mi/yr).

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT until July 2026, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering, despite the suspicious usage patterns.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars suggests a generally safe vehicle design.
  • The 2005 Nissan has a reputation for durability, particularly with its VQ35DE engine and RB25DE variant.
