2006 Nissan Micra 1.6L Petrol · ND56 AEY

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-12-02 at 44,591 miles showed no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Previous tests from 2024-06-12 (42,475 miles), 2023-05-13 (41,030 miles), and 2022-06-07 (39,754 miles) also passed without issues. A duplicate entry for a failed test on 2023-05-13 at the same mileage as a prior pass appears anomalous, possibly a data error. Overall, the record suggests consistent compliance with roadworthiness standards, with no escalating mechanical concerns. The vehicle’s low mileage of 44,591 miles over 20 years equates to approximately 2,230 annual miles, reflecting minimal usage or prolonged inactivity. MOT intervals exceed 12 months, with gaps of 12–18 months between tests, which may indicate inconsistent servicing. While this reduces wear on components like tyres and brakes, it increases risks of corrosion, fluid degradation, and suspension stiffness. The absence of defects in all recorded tests is positive but does not account for potential hidden issues from long-term storage. A buyer should inspect the suspension for worn bushes or coil springs, as low mileage can mask age-related fatigue. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for corrosion or binding, particularly if the vehicle was stored without regular use. The exhaust system and structural integrity require scrutiny, as prolonged inactivity may lead to rust or leaks. No advisories or failures in the MOT history suggest no immediate risks, but physical inspection is crucial to confirm the vehicle’s condition beyond recorded data.
