2010 Nissan Micra Visia 1.2L Petrol · BFZ 9329

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history, showing a consistent record of clean passes without recorded failures. The most recent test conducted on September 11, 2021, at 42,520 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This suggests a history of basic maintenance where the previous owners maintained the mechanical and safety components to a standard capable of passing successive DVSA inspections. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,658 miles per year. Between June 2018 at 35,481 miles and June 2019 at 39,799 miles, the car covered 4,318 miles in a single year. The gap between the 2019 and 2021 tests shows further accumulation of 2,721 miles. While low mileage indicates reduced wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of standing often lead to degradation of rubber-based parts and fluid-related issues. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on issues associated with low-mileage, long-term storage. Check for perished rubber in suspension bushes, split tyre sidewalls, and perished hoses which occur from age rather than use. Given the age, inspect the brake discs for surface corrosion or binding calipers caused by the vehicle sitting infrequently. Additionally, verify the structural integrity of the chassis and sills for hidden rust, as age-related oxidation remains a risk regardless of how few miles the vehicle has been driven.
