2007 Nissan Note 1.6L Petrol · RA07 FJJ

The vehicle presents a roadworthy status, but the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than way approach to repairs. In the most recent test in July 2025 at 46,865 miles, the car passed only after addressing failures related to a serious fluid leak in the offside front shock absorber and several minor defects. While the immediate safety failures were rectified, the recurring nature of brake-related issues and lighting faults suggests that components are only replaced once they reach the point of inspection failure. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 19-year-old vehicle, having covered only 46,865 miles, which averages to approximately 2,467 miles per year. This confirms minimal annual usage. Between the July 2024 test at 43,665 miles and the July 2025 test at 46,857 miles, only 3,192 miles were recorded. Such low mileage often leads to degradation of rubber-based components rather than mechanical wear, which is evident in the documented history below. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the braking and suspension systems, as the record shows a persistent history of degradation. Front enough discs were noted as pitted or scored in 2024 and 2025, following warnings of thin pads in 2024. Furthermore, the serious fluid leak on the offside front shock absorber in 2025 indicates that suspension components may be nearing the end of their life due to age rather than distance. The buyer should also check for cracking and perishing on all rubber elements, including tyres and wiper blades, which have been flagged in nearly every test since 2023.
