2013 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · AY63 AVM

The most recent DVSA test on 11 September 2025 at 63,101 miles returned a Pass with no advisories, and the prior test on 10 October 2024 was similarly clean. Across the five recorded entries spanning October 2022 to September 2025, only a single failure appears on 16 October 2023, immediately followed by a Pass on the same date with no recorded defects. That pattern suggests the earlier issue was rectified at source and has not resurfaced in the two subsequent tests. The overall trend from the documented history is stable, with no accumulating advisories or repeat items to indicate any developing concern within the limits of what MOT data alone can reveal. Annual mileage is notably light for a 2013 Nissan Note. Reaching 63,101 miles over roughly thirteen years equates to around 4,854 miles per year, well below the typical figure for a car of this age. The MOT ledger does not include intermediate mileage readings between annual tests, so it is not possible to confirm whether the vehicle has covered consistent mileage or has spent extended periods laid up. Buyers should be aware that low use can produce its own issues, particularly surface corrosion on underbody components, dried seals, and perished rubber, none of which MOT testing is designed to capture comprehensively. No suspension components, brake assemblies, exhaust sections, or structural areas have been flagged in any of the recorded tests. The absence of advisories across four of the five entries means there is no documented wear trend to target during a physical inspection. Nevertheless, a buyer should still examine the underbody and subframes for corrosion, particularly given the low annual mileage which can mask standing-time deterioration. Brake discs and pads, coil springs, exhaust hangers, and tyre sidewalls should be checked for age-related perishing rather than purely tread depth, and a road test should confirm no binding calipers or uneven brake pull. A focused inspection of the timing chain, CV joints, coolant condition, and clutch operation would also be prudent on a thirteen year old vehicle with this usage profile, items the MOT schedule does not cover. Given the clean recent record but the limited mileage, this Nissan Note presents as a low-risk purchase from a documented roadworthiness standpoint, pending verification of areas outside MOT scope.
