2006 NISSAN MICRA1.2L Petrol

Inspect the front brake pads and discs for the thinness and undercutting noted in earlier MOTs, and verify that the tyres have adequate tread depth and no cracking, especially on the rear wheels. Check the condition of the headlamp lenses and the registration plate lamp, as these were flagged as minor defects in the most recent test, and ensure all lights function correctly. Look for signs of rust on the underbody, wheel arches and exhaust system, and examine the suspension components for wear, as the vehicle has a history of advisory items in these areas.

Given the high mileage and past brake and tyre issues, negotiate a price that reflects the likely cost of replacing pads, tyres and addressing any rust, and request a full service history to confirm regular maintenance. A professional pre‑purchase inspection focusing on the braking system, suspension and corrosion points will help confirm the vehicle’s true condition before committing.
