2006 Nissan Micra 1.6L Petrol · NG06 TXB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having maintained a record of clean passes over the last several years. The most recent test conducted in April 2022 at 159,206 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, indicating that the car met all minimum safety standards at that time. While a single failure occurred in April 2021, the immediate rectification and subsequent clean pass suggest the owner was proactive in addressing identified faults rather than letting them persist. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per annum. Between May 2018 and April 2022, the car covered 23,088 miles, representing a steady and predictable usage pattern. However, there is a significant gap since the last recorded MOT in April 2022. Given the current date of June 2026, the vehicle has gone over four years without an official certification. This lapse creates a risk that mechanical degradation, perish rot in rubber components, or structural corrosion may have progressed without being documented since the last inspection. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the sills and wing arches, as older Micras are prone to corrosion that can eventually become structural. Because the record lacks recent advisories for suspension components, it is vital to check for worn bushes or leaking coil springs which often manifest with age. Given the time elapsed since the last test, the condition of the brake fluid and the state of the tyres require close scrutiny to ensure the vehicle has not seized or developed flat spots during periods of potential low use.
