2014 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · GK64 SDV

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in October 2025 at 88,845 miles returned a pass with only an advisory for a perishing nearside front tyre. This represents an improvement over the October 2023 failure where the car was rejected for bald tyres and worn brakes. While the vehicle has passed its last three consecutive tests, the historical data suggests that components are only addressed once they reach failure thresholds. The mileage pattern is consistent with a vehicle used for low-intensity commuting, averaging approximately 7,400 miles per year. There is a significant jump of 22,631 miles recorded between October 2023 and October 2024, followed by another 22,192 miles between October 2024 and October 2025. This steady accumulation indicates the vehicle has been used regularly, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and preventing brake-related corrosion compared to a car that has sat stationary for long periods. A buyer should focus specifically on the front suspension alignment and tyre geometry. The 2023 record flagged inner edge wear on both front tyres, which typically indicates incorrect tracking or worn control arm bushes and ball joints. Despite the subsequent pass, this recurring issue of uneven wear leads to premature tyre replacement if not rectified. Additionally, since the front brake discs were noted as worn in 2023, a physical inspection should verify the remaining thickness and surface condition of the rotors to ensure they are not nearing the end of their functional life.
