Our Verdict
Exercise significant caution. While the
The primary priority for any buyer is to investigate the mileage discrepancy between the 2023 and 2024 MOT tests, as the odometer reading appears to have decreased. You should request all previous service records and V5 registration documents to clarify this inconsistency.
Additionally, check for invoices confirming the replacement of the nearside rear coil spring and front suspension arms following the 2024 failure. Given the age of this 1.5L diesel engine, ensure there is documented evidence of timing belt changes and oil services to avoid costly engine failures.
The 1461cc diesel engine generally provides better fuel economy than petrol variants, though 2007 diesel tax bands are typically higher. Insurance for the Nissan Note is usually affordable, falling into a low-to-mid range group.
Maintenance costs are likely to be higher for this specific vehicle due to its age and the recurring suspension and corrosion issues noted in the MOT history. Expected annual costs for fuel, tax, insurance, and maintenance are estimated at £1,200-£1,500.
Carefully inspect the offside front engine mount area, as the 2025 MOT recorded that the integral body structure is corroded in this location. While structural rigidity was not significantly reduced at the time, corrosion in this area can progress.
Check the nearside front lower suspension arm, which was flagged as worn in the most recent August 2026 test. Given that suspension arms are a top failure reason for this model (based on aggregate data) and this specific car has failed on them previously, this is a known weak point. Also, verify the condition of the rear coil springs, which were noted as corroded in 2023 and fractured in 2024.
This 2007 blue Nissan Note diesel has a recorded mileage of 125,369 miles. The MOT history reveals a pattern of suspension issues, including a significant failure in 2024 involving coil springs and suspension arms. Most concerning is a recorded mileage drop from 108,740 miles in September 2023 to 101,920 miles in September 2024.
The Nissan Note has an average MOT pass rate of 77.8%, with suspension arms and headlamps being the most frequent causes of failure.
