2017 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · SN17 ABZ

This Nissan Micra presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 1 May 2025 at 27,288 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and remains in good mechanical order. The mileage is very low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,032 miles per year. Between June 2022 and June 2023, the car covered only 792 miles, indicating periods of light use or prolonged standing. A more significant increase occurred between May 2024 and May 2025, where the odometer rose by 4,210 miles. This shift suggests a change in usage patterns, but the lack of resulting wear on the MOT record is positive. The absence of any flagged defects, advisories, or recurring failures across five years of testing is rare. The record shows no history of suspension bush degradation, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues. A failure on 16 May 2024 was rectified immediately on the same day, though the record lists no specific defects for that failure, which often points to a minor administrative or lighting error. A buyer should focus on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Low-use vehicles often suffer from perished tyre rubber or seized brake calipers due to inactivity. Check the tyre date codes and ensure the brake pedals feel firm and responsive. Inspect the battery health and fluid levels, as long periods of standing can accelerate the degradation of engine oil and coolant.
