2010 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · PJ10 TWM

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a consistent history of clean MOT passes over the last five years. The most recent inspection on 27 November 2025 at 32,507 miles recorded no defects or advisories. This indicates a stable maintenance trend where the vehicle has met all DVSA safety standards without the recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation typically seen in cars of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 16-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,000 miles per year. Between December 2021 at 17,203 miles and November 2025 at 32,507 miles, the car covered only 15,304 miles. This low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though the long intervals between tests indicate the vehicle may sit for extended periods. The consistency of the annual testing suggests the car has remained in regular use use rather than suffering from long-term neglect. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by age and low-mileage storage. While the MOT record is clean, the tester must check for cracking in rubber bushes, perished wiper blades, and tyre sidewall rot due to low use. Low annual mileage can also lead to brake caliper seizing or corrosion on discs, so the braking system should be inspected for pitting. The chassis needs to be examined for structural rust on the sills and floor pans, as low mileage does not prevent oxidation in damp climates.
