2014 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · MJ14 ABV

The 2014 Nissan Note holds a currently roadworthy status, with the most recent DVSA test on 23 October 2025 at 39,748 miles returning a pass and no defects recorded. As of 14 July 2026 this certificate remains within its twelve-month validity and the maintenance trend across available history reads stable. Consecutive annual passes show no advisories. The solitary anomaly occurred on 13 December 2022 when the vehicle first failed and then passed on the same day at 34,508 miles, both entries showing no defects; this points to a clerical or non-mechanical compliance check rather than a worsening fault. Mileage accumulation sits well below typical averages for a twelve-year-old car. From the 13 December 2022 test at 34,508 miles to the 25 October 2024 test at 34,737 miles the vehicle covered just 229 miles across nearly two years, indicating extended storage. A modest rise to 39,748 miles by October 2025 adds 5,011 miles in the following twelve months, restoring nearer to light-use norms of roughly 3,300 miles per year overall. The record remains sparse and clean, with no recorded wear on consumables such as tyres, wiper blades, or exhaust emissions across any test. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and mechanical components that low mileage and standing can conceal. The age of the vehicle invites scrutiny of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion even though testers flagged nothing. Brake discs and calipers may exhibit surface rust or binding after long idle spells; the 2022 same-day fail-pass without noted defects warrants verification of brake operation and lighting circuits. Previous keepers appear to have maintained basic test compliance, yet the negligible mileages between 2022 and 2024 imply the car sat unused for long stretches. Such patterns often mask perished rubber components and degraded fluids not captured by MOT criteria. We advise a pre-purchase check of underbody rust, flexible brake hoses, and tyre sidewall condition before relying on the clean advisory sheet as a full health certificate.
