2014 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · FL64 TUP

The 2014 Nissan Note presents a stable and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 25 September 2025 at 45,799 miles. The tester recorded zero defects, indicating the vehicle currently meets all roadworthiness standards without any immediate mechanical or structural concerns. A failed test on 16 September 2022 at 34,916 miles shows no recorded defects, suggesting an administrative error or a minor issue swiftly rectified, as evidenced by the pass just five days later on 21 September 2022. Since that date, the car has passed three consecutive MOTs cleanly, demonstrating consistent and reliable upkeep. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally light use for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,817 miles annually. Between the September 2022 pass at 34,979 miles and the September 2024 test at 38,404 miles, the car covered just 3,425 miles over two years. Mileage accumulation then increased slightly, with the car traveling 7,395 miles between September 2024 and the most recent test in September 2025. This steady, low-mileage accumulation points to short, local journeys rather than long periods of total inactivity, though the overall distance remains well below the national average. The MOT record contains no recurring faults or advisories, removing any immediate red flags regarding suspension bushes, brake components, or structural corrosion. Despite this clean history, a physical inspection remains essential due to the vehicle's age and usage profile. Short trips and low mileage often cause brake disc corrosion and binding calipers due to lack of heat cycling, while rubber suspension bushes and tyres can perish from age rather than wear. A buyer should inspect the undercarriage for surface rust on brake discs and exhaust components, check the condition of the tyre sidewalls for cracking, and verify that the suspension remains free from corrosion-induced binding.
