2006 Nissan Note 1.4L Petrol · RE06 AEG

The vehicle passed its latest MOT on 27 February 2026 at 78,127 miles, recording only advisories on the windscreen and the near‑side and off‑side front tyres. The test the previous day, 26 February 2026 at 78,121 miles, had failed because the offside front coil spring was fractured and the Macpherson strut pin/bush was likely to become detached. The immediate repair and subsequent pass indicate an improving trend after a recent structural fault, yet the recurring tyre wear suggests ongoing basic upkeep is needed. Mileage accumulation is modest for a 2006 model, reaching 78,127 miles by July 2026 – roughly 3,906 miles per year. MOT entries from 2016 to 2026 show steady increments, with no abrupt mileage jumps, implying regular but light use rather than long periods of inactivity. The record is complete and dates are clustered around the annual test window, providing a reliable usage profile. A buyer should inspect the offside front coil spring for cracks or separation, test the Macpherson strut pin and bush for looseness, and examine the suspension arm pins for excessive wear. Brake condition is critical; check pad thickness against the 1.5 mm threshold, assess disc surfaces for pitting or scoring, and ensure the calipers release fully. Tyre tread depth on the front wheels is at the legal limit and both should be replaced promptly; also check rear tyres for perishing. Verify the registration plate lamp operation, windscreen clarity, and wiper function, and look for corrosion on side repeaters and any chassis rust.
