2009 Nissan Micra 1.4L Petrol · DG09 YHP

The 2009 Nissan Micra presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 13 March 2026 at 27,514 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend is stable, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged across the last three annual tests. A failed entry on the same date as the pass suggests an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical defect, as no faults were listed. Recorded mileage sits at 27,514 miles for a 17-year-old car, equating to roughly 1,618 miles per year. The DVSA data shows 26,095 miles at the 15 March 2024 test, rising to 26,973 miles by 14 March 2025 and 27,514 miles by 13 March 2026. Annual accumulation stays under 600 miles each year. The record is sparse and clean, with no rapid accumulation or notable gaps that would imply neglected high-use cycles. A buyer should still inspect the vehicle in person given its low-use profile and age. Long periods standing idle risk perished suspension bushes, flat-spotted tyres, and corroded brake discs or binding calipers from lack of movement. The March 2026 and March 2025 failures with zero defects recorded warrant confirmation that the V5C and test paperwork match and no suppressed advisory exists. Structural integrity and exhaust emissions cannot be verified beyond the clean passes listed. We recommend a physical check of underbody corrosion, coil springs, and flexible brake hoses, as these items degrade with time irrespective of mileage on a car of this vintage.
