2011 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · GV11 AEJ

This 2011 Nissan Micra presents an exceptionally stable maintenance profile with a clean bill of health. The most recent test on 14 January 2026 at 93,811 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed a test on the same day at 93,810 miles, the lack of recorded defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative failure rather than a mechanical fault. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical light-to-moderate use for a fifteen-year-old city car. The vehicle covered 4,498 miles between January 2025 and January 2026, and 4,862 miles between December 2023 and January 2025. This steady accumulation indicates the car has remained in active service rather than sitting idle, which generally helps preserve rubber seals and prevents battery degradation. The absence of any advisories or failures across five tests since January 2023 is unusual for a vehicle of this age. There are no recurring mentions of suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake disc corrosion. The record implies a high standard of preventative maintenance or a very light duty cycle that has spared the chassis from significant wear. A physical inspection should still focus on areas the MOT tester might overlook or that do not trigger a failure. Check the condition of the clutch pedal feel and the smoothness of the gear transitions. Given the age of the vehicle, a buyer should examine the underside for surface corrosion and check the service history for evidence of timing belt or oil changes, as the MOT record confirms roadworthiness but does not document routine mechanical servicing.
