Our Verdict

Proceed with caution and a thorough mechanical inspection. While the recent MOT pass is a positive note, the vehicle's age and specific mileage require careful scrutiny.

When viewing this silver Micra, your priority should be verifying the service history, as the MOT records alone do not confirm how the 998cc engine has been maintained. Because the last recorded MOT was in December 2021, you must check if the vehicle has had a valid MOT since that date; if it has been sitting idle or driving without a current test, this is a significant red flag.

Negotiate based on the fact that the mileage is well above the statistical average for this model. Check for any signs of recent work that might address common Micra issues, such as suspension components or emissions, as these are frequent failure points for this vehicle type across the wider dataset.

The 998cc engine is designed for economy, likely placing it in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it relatively inexpensive to run. Fuel economy should be decent for a small petrol hatchback, though actual figures will depend on driving style and maintenance.

Expect typical maintenance costs for a car of this age, with a focus on consumables like tyres and brakes. An estimated annual running cost for a vehicle of this specification typically falls within a modest range, provided it is kept roadworthy.

Focus your inspection on the underside of the vehicle. Aggregate data for this model indicates that sub-frame pins and emissions are common MOT failure reasons, so check for any signs of structural corrosion or exhaust issues.

Additionally, inspect the tyre condition and tread depth, as tyres are a frequent cause of failure for this model. Given the 2021 MOT data, check for any recent advisories regarding suspension or braking components that may have been noted in subsequent (unseen) tests.

This 2002 Nissan Micra (HT02GXH) is a 1.0L petrol model with 99,342 miles recorded at its last MOT in December 2021. Given its age, the mileage is significantly higher than the model average of 4,782 miles per year. The MOT history shows a pass and a failure on the same day in late 2021, though no specific defect descriptions were provided in the digital record.

Aggregate data from nearly 300,000 analysed vehicles shows a 77% MOT pass rate, with common failures relating to sub-frames, tyres, and emissions.
