Our Verdict
This Nissan Note is a strong candidate for buyers seeking a low-mileage, economical small car. Its recent MOT history is clean, showing no defects in its most recent inspections.
Given the low mileage for a 2014 vehicle, focus your inspection on ensuring that the service history matches the low usage. Ask the seller for evidence of regular oil changes, as cars that cover fewer miles can sometimes suffer from longer intervals between maintenance.
When viewing this specific blue 1.2L model, check the condition of the tyres and brakes, as low-mileage cars can sometimes experience 'flat spotting' or surface corrosion if they have been stationary for long periods. Negotiate based on the documented service intervals rather than just the MOT passes.
The 1198cc petrol engine is designed for efficiency, making this a cost-effective choice for urban driving. You can expect relatively low fuel consumption and a modest insurance group, typical for a small hatchback of this era.
Maintenance costs for the Nissan Note are generally predictable, though you should budget for standard consumables like tyres and wipers. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance, is approximately £1,100-£1,350 depending on your annual mileage and insurance profile.
While this specific vehicle has had no defects recorded in its last three MOT tests, you should remain aware of common Nissan Note issues. Based on aggregate data for this model, pay close attention to the suspension components, specifically the suspension arms and anti-roll bars, as these are frequent failure points across the wider fleet.
Additionally, check the condition of the headlamps to ensure there is no significant clouding or moisture ingress, as headlamp failures are a top reason for MOT failures in this model. Finally, inspect the underside for any signs of excessive corrosion, even though no structural issues have been noted in this car's recent history.
This 2014 blue Nissan Note with the 1.2L petrol engine has covered 46,517 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 5,736 miles per year. The MOT history shows a consistent pattern of passing, with the most recent three tests in 2023, 2024, and 2025 all resulting in passes with no recorded defects. While there was one failure recorded in November 2023, the vehicle has maintained a clean record since then.
Aggregate data for the Nissan Note shows an average MOT pass rate of 77.7%, with common failures often relating to suspension arms, headlamps, and anti-roll bars.
