NISSAN NOTE2013 · 1.6L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent testing history. The MOT conducted on January 27, 2026 at 37,653 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a period of clean passes in 2025 and early 2024, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards and does not show signs of escalating mechanical degradation or structural failure. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,900 miles per year. The data shows a significant drop in usage recently, with only 603 miles recorded between January 2025 and January 2026. A brief anomaly appears on January 24, 2024, where the vehicle failed and then passed just six miles later, suggesting a minor re-test issue that required immediate rectification. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, the infrequent use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based components or corrosion on exposed metal surfaces. A buyer should focus on inspecting components prone to age-related decay rather than mileage-related wear. Given the low usage, a thorough check of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake hoses is necessary to ensure they have not perished from sitting. The brake discs should also be examined for pitting or seizing, which often occurs when vehicles are driven infrequently over long periods. Additionally, checking the tyres for sidew cracking is vital, as the rubber may age out before the tread reaches legal limits.
