AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT on 10 November 2025 at 92,064 miles. The maintenance trend appears consistent, as the car consistently meets minimum standards following minor test failures. The lack of recorded defects in the 2024 and 2025 passes suggests that any issues identified during the failures were likely minor consumable items that were rectified immediately before the subsequent passing tests. The mileage history indicates low annual usage, averaging approximately 4,600 miles per year, which is significantly below the national average for a 20-year-old vehicle. Data shows steady usage intervals, such as the 3,000 miles covered between November 2023 and November 2024, and another 3,600 miles thereafter. This low mileage often suggests less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it also increases the risk of rubber-based components degrading or brakes seizing if the car has sat for extended periods between tests. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as older Nissan Micras are prone to corrosion regardless of low mileage. While the MOT records show no recurring mechanical failures, the age of the vehicle justifies a close check of suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking. Examine brake discs for surface pitting and calipers for perished seals, as low-use vehicles frequently suffer from internal corrosion in the braking system despite a relatively clean MOT history.
