2006 Nissan Note 1.5L Diesel · FM06 OHD

The 2006 Nissan Note presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 September 2025 at 146,313 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 25 January 2023 at 124,763 miles confirms no advisories or failures have persisted across the observed period. The history shows no recurring mechanical or structural concerns. Recorded mileage sits at 146,313 against an age of nearly twenty years, equating to roughly 7,300 miles per year and reflecting typical use for a vehicle of this class. The gap between the January 2023 test at 124,763 miles and the March 2024 test at 134,995 miles covers about 10,200 miles in just over twelve months, a slightly elevated but unremarkable rate. A failed test on 1 March 2024 at 134,995 miles carries no listed defects, with a clean pass issued the same day, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a fault. The DVSA record discloses no corrosion, suspension bush wear, brake binding, or exhaust emission issues across any entry. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity beneath sills and subframes, given the vehicle's age and salt-exposure risk on UK roads. Verify the condition of coil springs, brake discs, and tyre tread in person, as these consumables fall outside MOT advisory capture when within limits. Previous keepers appear to have maintained the car to a basic passing standard with no deferred major repairs. The absence of advisories suggests either light mechanical degradation or conservative annual mileage. Treat the clean record as a positive but not a substitute for a independent pre-purchase examination of drivetrain and chassis components.
