Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
Given the extremely low annual mileage, you should prioritise checking the health of the battery and the condition of the brake discs for surface corrosion. Ensure the service history reflects regular oil changes regardless of mileage, as oil can degrade even when the vehicle is not being driven regularly.
Negotiate on the cost of new tyres, as the 2024 and 2025 MOTs both flagged perishing and cracking on multiple tyres. This is a clear indicator of age-related rubber degradation rather than tread wear.
The 1.2L engine is designed for efficiency, making it an affordable option for urban commuting. Tax and insurance for this model are typically low, falling into a budget-friendly insurance group.
Annual running costs are estimated to be low, though initial maintenance may be higher if the car requires a 'wake-up' service including fresh fluids and new tyres after a period of inactivity.
Pay close attention to the tyres; the MOT history specifically notes cracking and perishing on the nearside front and rear tyres in December 2025, and both front tyres in November 2024. Check all four tyres for similar sidewall cracking.
Additionally, inspect the suspension arms and headlamps, as these are listed as top failure points for the Micra across aggregate data. Check the offside front indicator lens for the discolouration noted in the 2021 test to see if it has since been replaced.
This 2010 black Nissan Micra 1.2L petrol is a low-use example with a consistent MOT pass record. Between 2021 and 2025, the vehicle covered only 1,549 miles, which is significantly below the model average. While it has avoided MOT failures, recent advisories highlight issues with tyre perishing, a common occurrence for vehicles that remain stationary for long periods.
The Nissan Micra has a respectable average MOT pass rate of 77%, with common issues typically centering on tyres and suspension components.
