Our Verdict
This Nissan Note is a strong candidate for a budget-friendly runabout given its recent MOT performance. The clean test history over the last four years is a positive indicator, though its age means you should still conduct a thorough physical inspection.
When viewing this vehicle, prioritise checking the service history to see if the engine oil and filters have been changed regularly, as MOTs only assess roadworthiness at a specific point in time. Given the 1.6-litre petrol engine, ensure the car idles smoothly and that there is no evidence of overheating or coolant leaks during a test drive.
Negotiate based on the fact that this is a 19-year-old vehicle. Even with a clean MOT record, rubber components like bushes and hoses will be aging, and you should budget for potential wear-and-tear items that may arise in the coming months.
The 1.6-litre petrol engine in the Nissan Note is generally affordable to run but sits in a higher tax bracket than smaller-displacement engines of the same era. You can expect moderate fuel economy, likely averaging in the mid-to-high 30s mpg depending on your driving style.
Insurance for this model is typically reasonable, falling into a lower-to-mid group. Maintenance costs are generally manageable due to the availability of parts, but you should set aside a contingency fund for age-related repairs, such as suspension components or brake maintenance.
While the recent MOT history shows no defects, you should specifically inspect the suspension arms and brake discs, as these are common failure points for the Nissan Note model according to aggregate data. Check the tyres for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues not captured during the static MOT test.
Inspect the headlamps for cloudiness or internal moisture, another common issue for this model. Additionally, check the bodywork for signs of corrosion, particularly around the wheel arches and sills, which can be a factor for vehicles of this age.
This 2007 Nissan Note has covered 72,853 miles, which is consistent with its age. The vehicle has maintained a clean MOT record for the last four consecutive tests, with no defects recorded since at least 2022. It presents as a well-documented example of the 1.6-litre petrol variant in blue.
The Nissan Note generally performs well in MOT testing, with an average pass rate of 77.7% across the 164,426 vehicles analysed.
