2009 Nissan Micra 1.4L Petrol · DN58 NPA

The most recent MOT, conducted on 2025-09-08 at 53,914 miles, showed four tyres worn close to the legal limit with edge wear, and one rear tyre slightly damaged. This indicates ongoing tyre degradation, likely due to age or uneven wear. The 2024-02-29 MOT revealed similar tyre issues, including cracking and near-limit wear, alongside a failed headlamp. By 2023-02-24, tyres were already showing cracks and wear, with minor suspension bush wear noted. The 2022-02-21 MOT was clean, suggesting earlier maintenance was adequate. The primary risk pattern centers on tyre condition, with consistent warnings about wear and damage from 2023 onward. While the 2025 MOT passed, the recurring tyre issues imply potential neglect in replacement or monitoring. Suspension components showed minor wear in 2023 but were not repeated in later checks, suggesting isolated concerns. The failed 2024 MOT highlights a non-working headlamp, which was presumably fixed before the 2025 pass. The vehicle’s low mileage (3,171 miles annually) suggests either light use or periods of inactivity, which can accelerate rubber component aging (e.g., tyres, hoses).
