This 2016 Nissan has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 26,883 miles. While mileage is consistent, the high insurance group and prior dangerous defects warrant careful consideration.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 8,022 miles/year, but a 900-mile discrepancy on 17 Jul 2020 (34,952 to 34,052 miles) suggests a retest anomaly or potential odometer concern.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake disc failure on 17 Jul 2020 (34,952 mi) — critical safety concern.
- Recurring suspension arm advisories on 17 Jul 2020 and 17 Jul 2020 (34,052 mi) — indicates ongoing wear.
- Major tyre cut failure on 5 Jul 2021 (40,722 mi) — highlights potential neglect of critical safety components.
- Unusually large mileage difference (900 mi) on 17 Jul 2020 retest — raises odometer integrity questions.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-10-01 — no immediate retesting required.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,022 miles/year — no suspicious gaps or spikes.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Sep 2025).
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates good overall safety features.
