2009 Nissan Pixo 1.0L Petrol · LR59 AEV

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-12-11 at 87,446 miles recorded both a PASS and a FAIL outcome with no defects listed, creating ambiguity in its current roadworthiness status. Previous tests from 2022 to 2024 show consistent PASS results with no recorded defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. However, the conflicting 2025 test outcomes suggest potential administrative errors or unrecorded issues, warranting further verification through a professional inspection. The car’s mileage of 87,446 miles over 17 years equates to an average of 5,144 miles annually, significantly below the UK’s typical usage. This low mileage may indicate infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate component degradation through corrosion or fluid stagnation. The MOT history shows regular testing intervals, with no gaps exceeding 14 months, suggesting the previous owner prioritized compliance. However, the absence of defects in all recorded tests does not confirm mechanical integrity, as some issues may not trigger MOT failures. A buyer should prioritise inspecting the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common in older vehicles, and check brake components for uneven wear or corrosion, as these can develop without immediate MOT failure. The exhaust system and body panels should also be scrutinised for rust, particularly in areas prone to moisture ingress. While the MOT record lacks specific faults, the low mileage and sporadic testing pattern mean hidden issues could exist, necessitating a thorough pre-purchase examination by a qualified mechanic.
