2010 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · LG60 FPT

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness profile following its most recent MOT pass on 11 November 2025. While the record shows two instances of failure in November 2023 and November 2025, the lack of recorded defect descriptions suggests these were likely minor, non-mechanical failures or administrative re-tests rather than systemic mechanical decline. The progression from a failed test to a clean pass in both recent years indicates that any identified issues were rectified promptly to meet minimum standards. The mileage data confirms an exceptionally low usage pattern for a 2010 vehicle. Between November 2023 and November 2025, the car covered 16,722 miles, which is a significant increase compared to the average annual mileage of roughly 2,783 miles seen in previous years. However, the current odometer reading of 44,527 miles remains very low for a sixteen-year-old Nissan Micra. This pattern suggests the vehicle may have spent extended periods stationary, which can lead to specific maintenance requirements despite the low mechanical wear on the drivetrain. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on components prone to degradation during periods of inactivity. Low-mileage vehicles often suffer from perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes, engine mounts, and tyre sidewalls, which can crack from age rather than tread wear. Check the brake discs for heavy surface corrosion or pitting and ensure the calipers move freely to prevent binding. Given the low annual usage, inspecting the battery health and checking for any signs of fluid leaks from seals that may have dried out is also advisable.
