2015 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · GC15 OLD

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 23 March 2026 at 65,099 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, as the failure on that same day was minor, involving a non-functional nearside front position lamp. While the failure indicates a lapse in basic bulb checks, the lack of defects on the subsequent pass suggests the primary mechanical and structural components remain within acceptable tolerances. At 11 years old, the recorded mileage of 65,099 miles represents a low annual usage pattern of approximately 5,918 miles. This low mileage is consistent across the recorded history, with 12,588 miles driven between April 2024 and April 2025, and another 7,147 miles in the year leading up to March 2026. Such low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine but can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension, as the April 2025 test at 57,952 miles flagged a worn nearside front suspension arm pin or bush. Although this did not result in a failure at the time, it indicates the beginning of component fatigue that requires monitoring. The prospective owner should also verify the headlamp alignment, as both units were flagged for being too high in early 2025. Given the age of the vehicle, a physical check for corrosion on the underbody remains remains advisable to ensure that the low mileage has not masked structural oxidation.
