2015 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · FH15 FVC

The 2015 Nissan Note presents a stable and unblemished maintenance trend, passing its five most recent MOT tests without a single defect or advisory. The most recent examination on 7 August 2025 at 28,939 miles recorded zero faults, indicating the vehicle currently meets all required safety and emissions standards. This consistent pass rate suggests the previous owner addressed any wear items proactively rather than allowing minor issues to escalate into failures. However, the current certificate expires imminently on 6 August 2026, meaning a fresh test is due right now to verify its ongoing roadworthiness. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging just 2,631 miles annually. Between the 2021 test at 24,402 miles and the 2025 test at 28,939 miles, the car covered a mere 4,537 miles over four years. The annual increments remain remarkably consistent, ranging from 845 miles between 2021 and 2022 to 1,286 miles between 2022 and 2023. Such minimal usage typically points to short, localized journeys rather than long-distance commuting, which can sometimes prevent the engine and exhaust systems from reaching optimal operating temperatures. Despite the clean MOT record, the low-mileage profile warrants a physical inspection of components susceptible to deterioration from prolonged standing rather than active wear. A buyer should closely examine the condition of the tyres for sidewall cracking and flat spots, as infrequent use causes rubber to perish regardless of remaining tread depth. Suspension bushes and coil springs require scrutiny for perishing and corrosion, while brake discs and calipers must be checked for surface rust and binding caused by lack of regular friction. The exhaust system and diesel particulate filter, if fitted, should be assessed for internal condensation corrosion resulting from repeated short trips that fail to burn off moisture.
