2014 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · CK64 RMY

The most recent MOT test on this 2014 Nissan Note, conducted on 13 November 2024 at 52,076 miles, confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy without any recorded defects. The consistent pass history—spanning five consecutive tests from 2021 to 2024—indicates no recurring mechanical failures or advisory issues that would suggest worsening conditions. The absence of failings on critical systems like brakes, suspension, or emissions over this period reinforces a stable maintenance record, though the lack of advisories means no prior warnings of impending wear were documented. The recorded mileage of 52,076 miles over approximately 12 years equates to an average of around 4,340 miles annually, which is unusually low for a vehicle of this age. Notably, there is a 20-mile gap between the failed and passed tests in November 2023, suggesting either a brief period of disuse or a rapid correction of a minor oversight. The most significant mileage jump occurs between the 2022 and 2023 tests, where the vehicle accumulated 4,308 miles in just over a year—still low but slightly higher than the overall average. This pattern implies the car has seen light use, which may reduce wear on high-mileage components like suspension bushes or drivetrain seals, though it also raises questions about why the mileage remained so consistently low over the years. Given the clean MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an in-person inspection of suspension components, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, which are common wear items on this model and often not flagged until they reach critical degradation. The brakes, while never failed, should be checked for uneven wear or binding calipers, as the lack of advisories could mask early signs of corrosion or improper alignment. Corrosion around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe is another critical area to examine, as rust can compromise structural integrity without immediately affecting MOT passability. Finally, the exhaust system should be inspected for leaks or excessive corrosion, as emissions-related failures are rarely recorded until they become severe. The absence of advisories in recent tests means no prior warnings were issued, so these areas demand particular scrutiny.
