2012 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · H22 FBC

The vehicle holds a current MOT certificate valid until September 2026, with the most recent test on September 11, 2025, resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. This reflects a stable recent history, as the previous two annual inspections in 2024 and 2023 also concluded without advisories. The failure recorded on September 8, 2023, appears to be an administrative or immediate rectification event, as the vehicle successfully passed the subsequent inspection only three days later. The recorded mileage of 91,954 miles over fourteen years averages approximately 6,568 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for this vehicle class. The consistency of the annual testing schedule suggests the car has remained in regular operation without extended periods of inactivity. There are no indications of erratic mileage accumulation or significant gaps in the testing cycle that would suggest long-term storage or inconsistent usage patterns. While the recent MOT record is clear of defects, the lack of historical advisories does not preclude the presence of latent wear on a vehicle of this age. A physical inspection should prioritize the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and track rod ends, as these components often reach the end of their service life on a 2012 model. You should also verify the structural integrity of the chassis and sills for signs of corrosion that may not have reached the threshold for a test failure but could require attention. Given the age of the vehicle, checking for binding brake calipers and the condition of the brake discs is essential, as these items are subject to age-related degradation regardless of the clean pass record. Buying score: 75. Risk level: Low.
