2010 Nissan Note 1.6L Petrol · SL10 AAB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status following its most recent test on October 10, 2025, 85,966 miles. While the car passed this inspection with no recorded defects, the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes in both 2024 and 2025. This suggests that the vehicle is prone to specific, non-critical mechanical issues that are addressed just in time for the annual test, rather than being maintained through consistent long-term preventative care. At 16 years old, the Nissan Note has covered a low mileage of approximately 5,373 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for its age. The data shows consistent usage, with roughly 5,200 miles driven between the October 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 4,965 miles between October 2024 and 2025. This low annual mileage typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid acidity due to infrequent use. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focused on the suspension and braking system, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from seized brake calipers or perished suspension bushes from lack of movement. The recurring failures immediately prior to passes indicate that minor items such as light bulbs, wipers, or minor leaks may be ignored until the MOT is due. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check for structural integrity around the sills and wheel arches is essential, as low mileage does not protect the chassis from corrosion over a decade and a half.
