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

The Nissan Micra presents as roadworthy following its most recent pass on 29 July 2024 at 90,569 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The tester logged no defects at that examination. This clean result follows a failed test on 26 July 2024 at 90,565 miles where the DVSA system recorded no specific defect entries, suggesting an administrative or unlogged rectification rather than a mechanical fault. The odometer shows 90,569 miles against a 2003 build, equating to roughly 3,938 miles per year. The record traces 81,287 miles in May 2022, 86,018 miles in July 2023, and 90,565 miles by July 2024. Annual accumulation stays near 4,000 to 5,000 miles, with a fourteen-month gap between the 2022 and 2023 tests. Low mileage for the age implies lighter use, though standing periods can permit corrosion or perished rubber components unseen in a clean MOT sheet. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion given the vehicle's twenty-three years. The absence of advisories across all entries does not rule out latent wear on brake discs or exhaust emissions systems. The July 2024 fail with no recorded defect warrants confirmation that any required correction was properly completed and documented by the testing station.
