2016 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · DC16 OSX

The 2016 Nissan Note presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 13 August 2025 at 21,231 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of passes since at least July 2021. No advisories or mechanical faults appear across the five available records, indicating the vehicle has not required corrective work within the test scope during this period. Annual mileage remains exceptionally low for a ten-year-old car. The record shows 14,446 miles at the 2 July 2021 test, rising to 16,636 by 22 August 2022, 17,680 by 2 August 2023, 19,457 by 14 August 2024, and 21,231 by 13 August 2025. That equates to roughly 1,800 to 1,800 miles added each year, with no gaps in testing and no sudden accumulation. The sparse, defect-free history suggests light use and consistent annual presentation for MOT rather than deferred maintenance. A buyer should still inspect components the MOT does not deeply assess. Low mileage combined with probable long standing periods raises the risk of perished rubber suspension bushes, seized brake calipers, and superficial corrosion on structural underbody points not yet at test-fail thresholds. Check tyre sidewall cracking and flat spots from storage, and confirm brake discs are free of rust binding. Given the clean record, no recurring faults direct further targeted investigation. A pre-purchase inspection should nonetheless verify the exhaust emissions system and confirm the documented mileages reflect true use rather than odometer irregularity.
