Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for a budget-con
When inspecting this 1.6L petrol model, prioritize reviewing the service history to confirm regular oil and filter changes, as MOT records do not reflect internal engine health. Check if the front tyre wear highlighted in the November 2024 test was corrected with new tyres and a wheel alignment, as wear on both inner and outer edges often suggests a tracking issue.
Negotiate based on the age of the vehicle and any upcoming maintenance needs. Since the most recent MOT in December 2025 was clean, the vehicle is currently roadworthy, but ensure all previous advisories have been documented as resolved in the service book.
The 1.6L petrol engine is designed for versatility, offering reasonable fuel economy for city driving and sufficient power for longer trips. Tax and insurance costs are typically moderate for this engine size and age, though insurance groups vary based on the driver's profile.
Typical maintenance for a Nissan Note of this era includes routine fluid changes and occasional suspension work. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing, are likely to fall between £1,100 and £1,400.
Pay close attention to the front tyres; the 2024 MOT noted wear close to the legal limit on both the nearside and offside front edges. Verify that these have been replaced and that the tyres are wearing evenly. Additionally, listen for any humming or droning from the offside rear, as a noisy wheel bearing was flagged in 2022, and check that the rear exhaust silencer is securely fixed following a 2021 advisory.
Beyond this specific vehicle's history, inspect the suspension arms and brake pads. Aggregate data for the Nissan Note indicates these are common failure points across the model range, and they should be checked for excessive play or wear during your inspection.
This grey 2009 Nissan Note has recorded 85,169 miles, placing it slightly below the average annual mileage for this model. The MOT history from 2021 to 2025 shows five consecutive passes without a single failure. While some minor advisories have been noted, the overall record is relatively clean for a vehicle of this age.
The Nissan Note demonstrates a respectable average MOT pass rate of 77.8% across a large sample of over 164,000 vehicles.
