2008 Nissan Note 1.6L Petrol · NB08 AAN

The vehicle currently maintains a stable roadworthiness status following a period of intermittent failures. The most recent test on 12 January 2026 at 83,918 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed. While the history shows a pattern of failing immediately before passing, the current clean record suggests the current owner is proactive in rectifying flagged faults to maintain legal road use. The mileage pattern is notably low for an eighteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,662 miles per year. The data shows consistent, slow mileage increases, with only 2,177 miles covered between January 2024 and January 2025, and another 2,011 miles between January 2025 and January 2026. This low annual mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, though long periods of standing can often lead to the degradation of rubber components, perished seals, and seized brake calipers due to oxidation. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components that caused the recurring failures in 2024 and 2025, as the record does not explicitly list the reasons for those specific drops. Given the age of the Nissan Note, pay close attention to potential structural corrosion on the sills and rear subframe, where rust often accumulates despite low mileage. Additionally, inspect the brake discs for signs of pitting and the suspension bushes for cracking, as the low-frequency usage described does not prevent environmental degradation of material components over two decades.
