2009 Nissan Note 1.6L Petrol · MF59 UGM

The 2009 Nissan Note presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 26 September 2025 at 72,774 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable and unremarkable. Prior to that pass, the same day logged a failure with no defects listed, and an identical pattern occurred on 9 September 2024 when a failure at 71,792 miles was followed by a pass at 71,802 miles. These administrative failures without recorded faults suggest clerical or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical decline. The recorded mileage shows light use for a seventeen-year-old vehicle. The odometer read 68,053 miles at the 4 October 2023 test, rose to 71,802 miles by September 2024, and reached 72,774 miles by September 2025. That equates to roughly 972 miles in the first interval and 972 miles in the second, an average of under 1,000 miles per year. Such low annual accumulation points to infrequent operation, likely with extended periods of standing, which can allow corrosion and perished rubber components to develop unseen. The DVSA record flags no advisories across any test, so no recurring wear on brake discs, suspension bushes, coil springs, or exhaust emissions has been formally noted. A clean sheet at every examination implies the previous owners kept basic statutory compliance current. The repeated same-day fail-then-pass entries do not indicate skipped upkeep but do warrant confirmation that the V5C and MOT certificate match the timeline. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection beneath the sills, subframe, and suspension mounts given the vehicle's age and low-use profile. Standing vehicles of this era commonly suffer structural rust and stiffened bushes not caught in a visual MOT. Verify tyre sidewall condition and brake caliper freedom, as light mileage hides binding through lack of heat cycling.
