2010 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · DA10 JFU

The Nissan Micra presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 August 2025 at 92,047 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed cleanly. The single failure on 2 August 2024 at 83,829 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault, with the vehicle passing on the same day under identical mileage. The odometer shows light use for a 2010 vehicle. From the 1 August 2022 test at 65,921 miles, the car covered 9,723 miles to the 7 August 2023 test at 75,644 miles, then 8,185 miles to August 2024 at 83,829 miles, and 8,218 miles to August 2025 at 92,047 miles. This equates to roughly 5,750 miles per year against its 16-year life. The record shows no gaps exceeding twelve months and no rapid accumulation, though the sparse advisory data leaves suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc condition undocumented between tests. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the vehicle's age and low annual mileage, which often masks standing-water rust on sills and subframes. The clean MOT history offers no evidence of binding calipers or exhaust emissions issues, but the absence of advisories across five years suggests testers logged only hard failures. Verify the 2024 failure reason at the DVSA portal, as the nil-defect entry is atypical. Check tyre sidewall dates and wiper blade condition, the usual consumables skipped on a lightly driven car, before relying on the spotless record as proof of thorough upkeep.
