2010 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · FP10 KPT

The vehicle currently presents in a roadworthy state, having passed its most recent MOT test on 19 February 2026 at 75,324 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows an improving pattern; while the car failed its inspections in both 2024 and 2025, the subsequent passes indicate that the identified faults were rectified. This suggests that the current owner is proactive in addressing mechanical failures once they are flagged by the testing centre. The mileage profile is notably low for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,700 miles per year. Between February 2024 and February 2025, the car covered 3,533 miles, while it added another 3,155 miles between the February 2025 and 2026 tests. This consistent, low usage suggests short-distance trips which typically result in less wear on drivetrain and engine components compared to high-mileage examples. However, low mileage on a vehicle of this age can also imply the car sits stationary for extended periods, potentially leading to the degradation of rubber components and fluid breakdown. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas most prone to age-related decline despite low mileage. Since the record does not list the specific reasons for the previous failures in 2024 and 2025, a close check of structural corrosion on the sills and wheel arches is essential for a Micra of this era. Inspect the suspension bushes for cracking or perished rubber, and check the brake discs for pitting or seized calipers, as low-use vehicles often suffer from surface rust if not driven regularly.
