Infiniti Fx30d Auto (2012)
2012 Infiniti Fx30d Auto
CarHunch analysed 108 real MOT records for the 2012 Infiniti Fx30d Auto. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
The 2012 INFINITI FX30D AUTO passes its MOT slightly above the UK average at 83.6%, which is reassuring—but one concern is that 21.3% of these vehicles have recorded a dangerous defect at some point, putting it above the threshold where safety becomes a real buyer consideration. With an average of 1.43 failures per vehicle and 11 advisories, owners are dealing with a moderate workload of repairs and wear items rather than catastrophic mechanical issues.
At 70,471 miles average for a 12-year-old SUV, mileage is right where you'd expect it, suggesting typical use rather than abuse or neglect. The relatively high advisory count—11 per car—points to routine maintenance demands on the diesel engine and aging suspension components, so budget for regular servicing and check the service history carefully before buying.
What to check before buying a 2012 Infiniti Fx30d Auto
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
