2006 Nissan Micra 1.4L Petrol · DS06 EBL

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent inspection on November 13, 2025, with 80,454 miles and recorded defects. While the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes in both 2024 and 2025, the final results consistently show no advisories. This suggests the owner is proactive in rectifying identified issues immediately upon testing intervals, maintaining a consistent level of mechanical safety standards. The mileage profile is notably low for a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per annum Between the November 2023 test at 69,482 miles and the November 2024 test at 75,531 miles, the car covered 6,049 miles, indicating a period of light usage. This low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the risk of age-related rubber degradation and fluid breakdown, which often occur due to time rather than distance travelled. An in-person inspection should focus on the structural integrity of the chassis and sills, as low-mileage cars from this era are prone to hidden corrosion that MOT tests may miss if not specifically cleaned. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as these perish over time regardless of road use. Given the recurring failures despite subsequent passes, verify the brake system for signs of seized calipers or perished hoses, which are common issues on vehicles that sit for long periods between uses.
