2006 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · HT06 DXW

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing results. The most recent inspection conducted in July 2025 at 81,128 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While there was a recorded failure in August 2024 at 78,073 miles, the immediate pass on the same day suggests a minor issue that was rectified promptly rather than a systemic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is notably low for a twenty-year-old Micra, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per annum. Between August 2022 and July 2025, the vehicle covered only 7,894 miles, showing a trend of light usage or short-distance commuting rather than high-speed motorway travel. This low mileage often implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can also lead to age-related degradation of rubber-based parts and corrosion if the vehicle is not driven regularly. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the integrity of the chassis, particularly the sills and wheel arches, as older Micras are prone to structural rust regardless of mileage. The clean MOT record does not account for the condition of suspension bushes or brake lines, which can perish and crack over time despite low use. Given the low annual mileage, checking for any fluid leaks or seized brake calipers is essential to ensure the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of standing stationary.
