2008 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · NU58 AAK

This Nissan Micra presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT test on 24 February 2026 at 70,188 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent trend of five consecutive years of passes without a single advisory or failure, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard. The mileage is notably low for an 18 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,899 miles per year. The accumulation of distance has remained steady and predictable over the last five years, growing from 65,882 miles in February 2022 to 70,188 miles in February 2026. This linear progression suggests regular, light use rather than long periods of stagnation, which typically reduces the risk of seized calipers or perished rubber seals. While the MOT history is flawless, the age of the vehicle necessitates a physical check of components that the DVSA test may not fully exhaust. A buyer should inspect the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for age-related cracking, as rubber degrades regardless of mileage. Checking for structural corrosion on the underbody and sills is also prudent for a 2008 model, even if the tester did not flag it. The lack of any recorded advisories regarding brake discs or tyre tread over the last five years implies a proactive approach to maintenance by the previous owner. Focus any remaining inspection on the fluid levels and the condition of the battery, as low-mileage city cars often suffer from shorter battery lifespans due to frequent short trips.
