2006 NISSAN MICRA1.6L Petrol

This 2006 Nissan Micra presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of recent inspections. The most recent test on 17 April 2025 at 96,108 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of clean passes dating back several years, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage is notably low for a twenty year old vehicle, averaging roughly 4,805 miles per year. Between 6 September 2022 and 17 April 2025, the odometer increased by 5,740 miles, confirming the car is in regular, albeit light, use rather than sitting dormant for long periods. The lack of recorded defects across these tests indicates a consistent state of repair during this window. While the MOT history is exceptionally clean, the absence of any flagged advisories over several years is unusual for a vehicle of this age. A buyer should specifically inspect the underside for structural corrosion and check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these components often degrade regardless of low mileage. Attention should also be paid to the brake discs and pads for surface pitting or seizing, which can occur in low-use vehicles. Checking the date codes on the tyres is essential to ensure the rubber has not perished due to age, even if the tread depth remains legal. These physical checks will confirm if the clean MOT record reflects proactive maintenance or simply a lenient testing history.
