2016 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · MD66 AAK

The vehicle maintains a stable roadworthiness status with a consistent history of passing annual inspections. The most recent MOT test on 4 December 2025 at 24,995 miles passed with no recorded defects, following a failure just four miles prior. This pattern suggests the previous failure was likely a minor, avoidable item, such as a bulb or a minor adjustment, which was rectified immediately before the passing result. The record shows no evidence of escalating mechanical degradation or structural failure. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,500 miles per year. Between December 2023 and December 2024, the car covered only 4,432 miles, moving from 18,181 to 22,613. This low usage rate indicates minimal wear on the drivetrain, engine components, and suspension bushings. However, such low annual mileage often leads to age-related issues such as rubber perish, fluid degradation, or brake corrosion if the vehicle remains stationary for extended periods. A buyer should physically inspect the vehicle for signs of flat-spotting tyres or brake seizing resulting from the low mileage. Given the car has sat frequently, the inspector should check the brake discs for surface pitting and ensure the calipers are moving freely. While the MOT record is clean, the age of the vehicle necessitates a close look at the rubber hoses and the chassis for corrosion, which do not always appear despite low mechanical mileage.
