About the Nissan Tiida
The Nissan Tiida has been tested 913 times in 2026 MOT data across 4 model years (2008 to 2011), with an average pass rate of 64%. That's 18 points below the national average of 82%, so check the year-by-year data carefully before buying. Available as petrol.
Best and Worst Years
The 2010 model is the most reliable with a 67% pass rate from 326 tests. The 2008 model has the lowest at 61%. The 6 point spread between years means reliability varies somewhat, but no year is dramatically different.
Mileage Across Years
The oldest model in our data (2008) averages 135,942 miles, while the newest (2011) averages 69,450 miles. Older models have covered serious mileage, so suspension and drivetrain wear are worth checking.
Compared to the Nissan brand average of 81%, the Tiida is 17 points lower, placing it among the less reliable Nissan models.
