2018 Nissan Micra 1.5L Diesel · CE68 UKM

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift towards developing suspension-related wear issues. While the most recent test in June 2026 at 68,319 miles passed, the tester identified wear on the front anti-roll bar pins or bushes and perishing on both rear tyres. These issues represent a departure from the clean record seen in 2024, suggesting that the vehicle is entering a phase where rubber components and suspension hardware require more proactive replacement. The mileage pattern remains consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,500 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 6,000 miles covered between May 2025 and June 2026, following a similar 4,500-mile interval between June 2024 and May 2025. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods ofກັບ, which is generally beneficial for engine seals and braking systems, though it explains the standard degradation of consumable parts. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the front suspension to ensure the worn anti-roll bar bushes have not caused secondary damage to the mounting points. The failure in June 2024 for a fractured offside rear coil spring indicates that the suspension assembly is under stress; therefore, the opposite side should be checked for similar cracks or heavy corrosion. Additionally, the perishing noted on the rear tyres in the latest test requires the rubber is checked for cracking, which indicates age-related degradation despite the relatively low overall mileage.
