2008 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · PN58 SYR

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent testing data. The latest MOT conducted on 13 December 2025 at 54,799 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. While a failure was recorded briefly on 10 December 2024, the subsequent pass achieved just three days later suggests a minor issue that was immediately identified and rectified rather than a chronic mechanical failure. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an 18-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,044 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage over the last three years, with roughly 300 miles covered between January 2023 and December 2023, and another 2,267 miles following that. This low mileage typically implies less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber seals, fluid breakdown, and surface corrosion due to periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and underside, as low-mileage cars often suffer from hidden rust if left stationary in damp environments. Inspecting the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake lines is essential, as these components can perish over time regardless of distance driven. Given the clean records in recent years, the buyer should also check for binding calipers or pitted discs to ensure the low usage has not caused mechanical components to seize.
