2015 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · AY65 MHV

The vehicle presents a technically roadworthy profile with a stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent test on 18 September 2025 at 145,038 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a curious failure just one day prior at 145,034 miles. This specific sequence suggests a potential administrative error or a minor component issue that was rectified instantly, rather than a systemic mechanical failure. Since August 2022, the car has maintained a clean pass record, indicating that the primary safety systems remained within acceptable tolerances during annual inspections. The mileage profile reflects high-intensity usage for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 13,185 miles per year. The data shows a steady accumulation of miles over the years, though a significant spike in usage occurred between September 2023 and September 2024, where the vehicle covered nearly 10,000 miles in a single year. This consistent usage is generally preferable to long periods of standing, as it prevents mechanical seals from drying and brake components from seizing. The lack of recorded advisories across these high mileage intervals suggests the previous owners have been proactive in addressing wear items before they triggered MOT failures. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components most susceptible to high-mileage stress. Given the 145,000 mile mark, the suspension arm bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers should be checked for perished rubber or leaks as these often fail at this interval. The buyer should also inspect the brake discs for uneven wear or binding calipers, as high-frequency driving accelerates the degradation of friction materials. While the MOT history is clean, the high annual mileage necessitates a thorough check of the drivetrain mounts and exhaust system to ensure no structural corrosion or excessive play have developed since the last test.
