NISSAN MICRA2015 · 1.2L PETROL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 11 November 2025 at 69,544 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable but reactive. The car failed the test on that same day due to a non-functional nearside headlight, which was rectified immediately to secure a pass. This suggests the owner addresses specific safety failures once they are flagged during testing rather than following a preventative maintenance schedule. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eleven-year-old city car, averaging approximately 6,300 miles per year. Between November 2022 and November 2025, the vehicle covered 10,999 miles, indicating a steady but low usage of roughly 3,600 miles annually during that period. This low annual mileage is typical for short-distance commuting, which can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber components and perish, rather than mechanical wear from high-mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front suspension and tyre condition. The November 2022 test at 58,545 miles flagged severely deteriorated suspension arm ball joint dust covers on both sides. While these were not noted in subsequent tests, the recurring history of tyre-related issues—including perishing in 2023 and edge wear in 2024—suggests the owner tends to replace consumables until they reach legal limits. Inspect the sidewalls for cracking and check the ball joints for any play or torn boots to ensure the previous suspension issues have not returned to a critical state.
