2009 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · LX59 UCS

The vehicle presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent clean record over the last five years. The most recent test conducted on 25 September 2025 at 17,814 miles passed without any defects or advisories. This trend of clean passes suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard or has not suffered from significant mechanical failures or structural degradation that would trigger an MOT failure. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old vehicle, averaging 1,048 miles per year. Between September 2021 and September 2025, the car covered only 2,167 miles, representing a steady increase of roughly 500 to 600 miles per annum. This low usage typically indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine, and suspension components. However, such low mileage often carries risks associated with long stationary periods, such as the degradation of rubber components and fluid breakdown. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that age through time rather than distance. Check the tyres for flat spotting and sidewall cracking, as perished rubber is common on low-mileage cars of this era. Given the lack of advisories regarding brakes, the inspector should still verify for seized calipers or corroded brake discs caused by infrequent use. Additionally, inspect the underside for structural rust, particularly in the sills and wheel arches, as corrosion can occur regardless of how few miles the vehicle has clocked.
