FAQs
Is a 2010 Nissan Juke reliable?
2010-registered examples passed 59.3% of their MOT tests (13,856 tests, 2023–2025), -8.1 points versus all UK cars registered in the same year. At roughly 16 years old with a median 93,167 miles, condition now varies car by car — always check the individual MOT history.
What mileage is too high for a 2010 Juke?
The median tested example shows 93,167 miles. Anything far beyond that isn't automatically bad — a motorway-mile car with consistent service records often beats a low-mileage school-run car — but price accordingly and scrutinise the mileage trail for gaps or drops.
Should I buy the petrol or diesel 2010 Juke?
In this cohort petrols pass 59.8% of tests against 55.3% for diesels. Mileage and use can explain part of that gap, so treat it as a reason to inspect DPF and emissions history, not a fuel-type verdict.

A fault or an advisory is a quote waiting to happen. These pages set out what a garage has to tell you, what a comparable written quote should include, and what you can do if the bill is not what you agreed.

- Estimates, quotes and extra work — what a price has to cover, and when a garage may charge more than it first said.
- What a diagnostic test costs — what the fee should include, and when it should come off the repair.
- Tools — when to buy and when to skip — how to choose a diagnostic tool, and when a garage visit is cheaper than owning one.
