2010 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · PL10 UGP

The 2010 Nissan Micra presents a stable and exemplary maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean pass on 29 January 2026 at 132,555 miles. Not a single defect or advisory has been recorded across the last five consecutive annual tests. This unbroken string of zero-defect passes indicates a vehicle that has been consistently maintained to a high mechanical standard, with no emerging or recurring faults requiring remedial attention. The mileage accumulation aligns perfectly with typical usage for a vehicle of this age. Between the January 2022 test at 100,460 miles and the most recent January 2026 test at 132,555 miles, the Micra has covered roughly 32,000 miles over four years, averaging approximately 8,000 miles annually. The yearly intervals show consistent, steady use without any sudden spikes in accumulation or suspiciously long periods of inactivity that might suggest neglect or a standing vehicle suffering from deterioration. Although the MOT record is entirely free of advisories, a sixteen-year-old vehicle with over 132,000 miles demands a thorough physical inspection of its structural integrity and consumable components. Buyers should closely examine the underside and sills for corrosion, a common affliction for superminis of this era, paying particular attention to the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs which degrade with age regardless of mileage. Brake discs and pads should be measured for remaining life, and the exhaust system inspected for rust or gas leaks. These items deteriorate through time and use even when the vehicle passes its emissions and brake efficiency tests on the rollers. A clean MOT history confirms the car met the minimum legal standard on test day, but it does not guarantee the current condition of wear-and-tear components that sit just above the fail threshold.
