2010 Nissan Note 1.6L Petrol · CV60 XHC

The 2010 Nissan Note currently holds a valid MOT certificate, passing its most recent test on 5 July 2025 at 54,871 miles with zero defects recorded. The maintenance trend remains stable, with no mechanical or structural advisories appearing across the entire history. A notable anomaly exists in the record from 2 July 2025, where the vehicle failed at 54,849 miles despite showing no defects. This indicates a procedural failure, likely caused by insufficient fluids to complete the emissions test, rather than a mechanical fault. The subsequent pass just three days later confirms the issue was rectified without any parts replacement. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally low usage for a vehicle of this age. At roughly 16 years old with 54,871 miles on the clock, the annual average sits at approximately 3,429 miles. Examining the chronological progression, the odometer read 46,903 miles in June 2023, 51,112 miles in June 2024, and 54,871 miles in July 2025. This translates to 4,209 miles over twelve months, followed by 3,759 miles over the next thirteen months. The data is clean and consistent, showing no sudden spikes or suspicious mileage discrepancies that might suggest tampering or prolonged inactivity. Despite the pristine MOT record, the ultra-low annual mileage demands a careful physical inspection focused on deterioration caused by standing rather than driving. A buyer must inspect the structural integrity of the underbody and suspension mounts for corrosion, as short trips and long stationary periods accelerate moisture accumulation and rust formation. Rubber components, including suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, require close scrutiny for perishing and cracking due to age-related degradation rather than tread wear. The braking system also warrants attention; low-mileage vehicles frequently suffer from binding calipers and surface corrosion on brake discs caused by lack of regular use. Checking the date codes on the tyres will reveal if the current set is aging out, even if the tread depth remains legal.
