2009 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · LL09 OEX

This Nissan Micra presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 20 June 2025 at 118,961 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates over the last three years, suggesting the vehicle is currently well-maintained and free of immediate mechanical failures. The mileage is typical for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 6,998 miles per year. The distance covered between the June 2023 test at 104,380 miles and the June 2025 test at 118,961 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 7,300 miles annually. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or long periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration from standing. The MOT record is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age, showing no recorded advisories for suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions across multiple years. While the failures on 9 June 2023 and 10 June 2024 were resolved on the same day, the lack of specific defect data in the record makes it difficult to identify recurring mechanical weaknesses. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT tester may have overlooked or that do not trigger a failure. Check for structural corrosion on the sills and chassis, as rust often develops gradually before becoming an MOT failure. Verify the condition of the clutch and gearbox operation, as these drivetrain components are subject to wear at 118,000 miles but are not assessed during a standard MOT test.
