2015 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · VF15 DXR

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on July 16, 2025, at39,620 miles. The maintenance trend shows significant improvement after a period of neglect in mid-2024. While the car failed its previous test due to specific suspension and drivetrain issues, the subsequent successful test with no recorded defects indicates that the identified faults were addressed and the vehicle has been returned to a stable mechanical state. The mileage profile is notably low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. The data shows consistent, light usage, with only 2,161 miles driven between July 2023 and July 2024, and another 2,069 miles between July 2024 and July 2025. This low annual mileage suggests less wear on engine-related components, but it also means that rubber-based parts may perish or crack from long periods of inactivity. A physical inspection should focus on the front-end assembly where recurring issues occurred. The 2023 and 2024 tests highlighted severe deterioration in the nearside front inner drive shaft constant velocity boot and both front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust covers. A buyer must verify that these components were replaced with quality parts and check for any signs of grease leakage or cracking in the rubberwork. Given the low mileage, the inspector should also check for brake surface corrosion on the discs and seized calipers, which frequently affect vehicles that sit stationary for extended periods.
