2007 Nissan Note 1.6L Petrol · VO56 KSY

The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate issued on 17 April 2025 at 199,504 miles. This most recent test resulted in a clean pass with no recorded defects or advisories, indicating a stable mechanical condition over the last twelve months. While the test history shows initial failures in 2023 and 2024, these were cleared immediately on the same day or within a week, suggesting that the vehicle was presented for testing without pre-inspection rather than suffering from chronic, unresolved mechanical faults. Accumulating 199,504 miles over nineteen years equates to an average of approximately 10,500 miles per annum, which is consistent with typical usage patterns for a vehicle of this age. The rate of mileage accumulation has remained relatively steady, with the car covering roughly 12,000 miles between the April 2024 and April 2025 tests. This consistent usage suggests the engine and drivetrain have been kept in regular operation, avoiding the common issues associated with long-term storage, such as seized calipers or degraded fuel systems. Despite the clean record in the most recent test, a prospective buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of high-wear components that often escape MOT scrutiny. Given the high mileage, focus your attention on the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these parts likely face significant fatigue at this stage of the vehicle's life. Check the subframe and sills for signs of structural corrosion, as older Nissan models are prone to rust in these areas. Finally, verify the operation of the clutch and manual gearbox, as these major drivetrain components are nearing the end of their expected service life and will not be fully evaluated during a standard roadworthiness test.
