NISSAN MICRA2016 · 1.2L Petrol

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on 19 August 2025. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the car consistently passes its inspections after immediately addressing initial failures. While the record shows failures in both 2024 and 2025, the lack of recorded advisories across all tests suggests that the owner is proactive regarding immediate repairs rather than allowing minor mechanical or structural issues to deteriorate. The mileage profile is notably low for a ten-year-old Nissan Micra, averaging approximately 3,600 miles per year. Between August 2023 and August 2024, the car covered 7,769 miles, while it added another 6,768 miles in the following year leading up to the 2025 test at a recorded 36,174 miles. This low usage typically indicates less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though low-distance driving often leads to accelerated aging of rubber-based parts and brake corrosion due to lack of use. A buyer should physically inspect the vehicle for signs of age-related degradation, such as perished suspension bushes or seized brake discs, which can occur despite low mileage. Because the MOT history shows failures with no specific defects listed in the summary, the issues likely related to simple consumable items like bulbs, wipers, or minor adjustments that were rectified quickly. Focus attention on the structural integrity of the chassis sills for rust, as long-standing vehicles are prone to surface corrosion that does not always trigger a failure until it reaches a critical threshold.
