Our Verdict
This Nissan Micra represents a strong candidate for a budget-friendly runabout, supported by a remarkably consistent recent MOT record. With no recorded defects over the last four inspections, it is a well-documented example of the 2011 model year.
When inspecting this vehicle, focus on the mechanical basics despite the clean MOT history. While the MOT tests have been clear, these checks do not cover the engine's internal health or the condition of the clutch, so ensure you conduct a thorough test drive to listen for any unusual noises from the 1.2-litre engine.
Ask the seller for any supplementary service records, as the MOT history only confirms the vehicle met minimum legal standards at the time of testing. Check the condition of the tyres and suspension components, as these are common failure points for the Micra model according to aggregate data.
The 1.2-litre petrol engine is designed for economy, making this an affordable car to run for city commuting or short trips. Insurance groups for the 2011 Micra are generally low, which helps keep annual premiums competitive for most drivers.
Tax costs will depend on the specific CO2 emissions for this trim level, but the Micra is generally tax-efficient. You should budget for standard annual maintenance including oil changes and filter replacements to ensure the engine remains reliable, with an estimated annual running cost of £750-£950.
Pay close attention to the suspension arms and headlamp condition, as these are the most frequently cited failure points for this model across the UK. Even though this specific car has passed its recent tests without issue, inspect the rubber bushings and check that all lights are free from clouding or cracks.
Inspect the tyres for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues not captured during the MOT. Additionally, check the bodywork for signs of corrosion or previous paint repairs, as the white finish can sometimes hide minor remedial work.
This 2011 Nissan Micra in white has covered 41,391 miles since its registration in October 2011. The MOT history is notably clean, showing four consecutive passes without a single recorded defect or advisory between 2022 and 2025. Given the model's typical reliability profile, this vehicle's recent history suggests it has been kept in a roadworthy state through its recent life.
The Nissan Micra generally performs well, though it is prone to common wear-and-tear items like suspension arms and lighting failures as identified in the aggregate data of over 293,000 vehicles.

- Manual Clutch WearModerate
Micras used primarily in the city often suffer from premature clutch wear, leading to a high biting point or slipping.
