2017 Nissan Note 1.2L Petrol · YY66 XGS

The 2017 Nissan Note presents a clean and stable roadworthiness record. The most recent MOT, conducted on 27 November 2025 at 33,886 miles, passed with zero defects. This follows a pattern of consistent passes, with the only recorded fault being a minor wiper blade advisory in January 2023. The maintenance trend is clearly improving, as the vehicle has been defect-free for over two and a half years, indicating attentive basic upkeep by the current keeper. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle. The record shows a steady accumulation from 23,763 miles in January 2022 to 33,886 miles in November 2025, averaging roughly 3,765 miles per year. The most significant jump occurred between the December 2024 test at 28,304 miles and the November 2025 test at 33,886 miles, adding 5,582 miles in under a year. This suggests a shift from prolonged light use to more regular driving, which is generally positive for preventing the seizure associated with long-term standing. Despite the clean MOT history, a buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection. The low mileage and recent increase in usage warrant a close check of the braking system for surface corrosion on discs and binding calipers, common on vehicles that have stood idle. Suspension components, particularly front lower arm bushes and rear beam bushes, should be inspected for perishing, as age-related deterioration is not always flagged in an MOT. The exhaust system and its mountings require attention for corrosion, especially given the vehicle's age. Finally, verify the condition of all tyres, including the spare, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from sidewall cracking and uneven wear due to infrequent use rather than tread depth.
