2009 Nissan Pixo 1.0L Petrol · AA04 OJA

The 2009 Nissan Pixo currently fails the roadworthiness test. The most recent DVSA examination on 13 January 2026 at 101,690 miles returned a failure with no defects recorded, an administrative anomaly that leaves the car legally unroadworthy until a valid pass is issued. Prior to this, the vehicle held a stable clean pass history across four consecutive years, so the trend is not one of worsening mechanical decay but rather a sudden break in valid certification. Mileage sits low for a seventeen year old car. The record shows 75,418 miles in January 2022, rising to 81,582 by January 2023, 86,414 in January 2024, 91,403 in January 2025, and 101,690 at the failed January 2026 test. That equates to roughly 5,982 miles per year overall, with the final twelve month period showing about 10,300 miles added, a moderate increase but still light use. No gaps exist between tests; the owner kept annual examinations current. The clean pass sheets from 2022 through 2025 listed no advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the underbody for rust, check the brake calipers for binding after the car's period of low use, and verify the January 2026 failure cause at the testing station. The absence of recorded defects offers no evidence of skipped consumable upkeep, though wiper blades and tyre tread must be confirmed visually. Given the low annual mileage and unbroken pass record until last January, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory testing discipline. The open failure demands clarification before any purchase; do not treat the clean historical sheet as proof of present condition.
