2008 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · NU58 ACJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent test on 26 May 2025 at 100,562 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects or advisories, following an initial failure just six days prior at 100,494 miles. This suggests a minor mechanical or presentation issue was rectified rectified immediately, indicating a proactive approach to maintaining the MOT pass standard. At 18 years old, the recorded mileage of 100,562 miles represents an average annual usage of approximately 5,587 miles. This is significantly lower than the national average, suggesting light use or short-distance commuting. The interval between the 2023 and 2024 tests shows an increase of 2,665 miles, which aligns with this low-mileage pattern. Such low mileage often reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, but can occasionally lead to age-related degradation that exceeds high-mileage wear. While the digital record is clean, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components common to low-mileage vehicles of this age. Check for cracking and degradation in rubber components, such as suspension bushes, engine mounts, and tyre sidewalls, which perish over time regardless of distance traveled. Inspect the structural integrity for corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as the Mic of this era is prone to moisture-related rust. Ensure the brake discs show no signs of pitting or seizing, as infrequent use can lead to surface oxidation and binding calipers.
