2008 Nissan Note 1.6L Petrol · SV08 VCY

The Nissan Note holds a current roadworthy status following the 2026-02-02 MOT at 105,298 miles, where the tester issued a pass on the same day as a failure with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend stays stable across the three-year record, with no advisories or mechanical faults logged. This pattern signals consistent statutory compliance, though the paired fail-pass entries remain anomalous. Odometer readings show 73,789 miles at the 2024-02-07 test, rising to 86,540 by 2025-02-03 and 105,298 by 2026-02-02. The car added about 12,751 miles in the first interval and 18,758 in the second, a slight acceleration from a low base. Across its 18-year life the average annual mileage sits near 5,850, confirming light use for a 2008 vehicle. The history is sparse but clean, with only annual tests and no interim gaps. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, as age-related wear may escape a brief test. The tester flagged no binding calipers or corrosion, yet structural integrity around sills and subframes demands visual checks given the chassis age. Verify the V5C and MOT certificate to explain the same-day failures with zero defects in February 2025 and February 2026. Previous keepers sustained basic MOT compliance, but the repeated null-defect failures suggest administrative oversight rather than mechanical neglect. Rubber components such as wiper blades and tyres may perish from low mileage standing periods; examine exhaust emissions under real driving conditions.
