2010 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · EO60 AVK

The 2010 Nissan Micra presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 26 November 2025 at 74,918 miles, with the maintenance trend stable across the recorded history. The most recent test showed no defects, and prior annual tests in November 2024, 2023, and 2022 also returned passes with no advisories. The single failure on 25 November 2025 at the same mileage was logged with no defects recorded, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault. Recorded mileage sits at 74,918 miles against a 16-year lifespan, an average of roughly 4,682 miles per year and low for the age. The odometer moved from 59,788 miles in November 2022 to 62,505 in November 2023, then 68,003 in November 2024, and 74,918 by November 2025. Annual accumulation stayed between 2,700 and 6,900 miles with no abrupt jumps or dormant gaps. The clean sheet across five years implies the previous keeper kept basic upkeep current, though low use can mask perished rubber components from standing. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and low annual mileage. Long idle periods promote corrosion on structural members and exhaust systems even when MOT advisories are absent. Verify tyre sidewall condition and check for binding calipers, as these items are not always captured in a pass result. The absence of recorded faults should not override a pre-purchase underside check for structural rust. The Micra's light use pattern warrants scrutiny of fluid degradation and flexible brake hoses that may have aged rather than worn.
