Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and a thorough inspection. While the most recent MOT was a pass, the vehicle has a pattern of failing tests shortly before passing, which suggests recurring maintenance needs.
When viewing this specific Nissan Note, request a detailed service history to see if the recent MOT failures were addressed with preventative maintenance or merely reactive repairs. Given the mileage has surpassed 100,000 miles, pay close attention to the engine's performance and any signs of oil leaks.
Negotiate based on the fact that this vehicle has failed two MOT tests in the last three years (2025 and 2026). Check the tyre tread and brake pad life, as these are common consumables that may be nearing replacement given the high mileage recorded.
The 1198cc petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group, making it relatively affordable for new drivers. However, fuel economy will depend heavily on driving style and the vehicle's maintenance state.
Typical maintenance costs for a Nissan Note of this age include regular servicing, brake replacements, and potential suspension work. Expect annual running costs to be moderate, though the high mileage may lead to more frequent component replacements compared to lower-mileage examples.
Based on aggregate data for this model, you should specifically inspect the suspension arms, anti-roll bars, and headlamps, as these are the most frequent failure points for Nissan Notes. Even though no specific defects were recorded in the most recent failures, these components are known weak points.
Additionally, check the condition of the black paintwork for any signs of oxidation or scratches, and inspect the tyres and suspension for any play or knocking sounds, which could indicate the wear typical of a vehicle that has covered over 100,000 miles.
This 2014 black Nissan Note with the 1.2L petrol engine has covered 104,196 miles as of January 2026. The MOT history shows a recurring pattern where the vehicle fails an inspection only to pass a retest a day or a year later. With mileage significantly higher than the model average of 5,736 miles per year, buyers should factor in higher wear and tear.
Aggregate data for this model shows an average MOT pass rate of 77.7%, with suspension and lighting components being the most common causes of failure.
