2007 Nissan Micra 1.2L Petrol · RO57 AEY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, showing a consistent maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent MOT test on 14 August 2025 at 101,018 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety standards. This follows a period of clean passes in 2024 and 2022, suggesting that the current ownership is proactive in addressing potential issues before they result in a test failure. The mileage profile is notably low for a 19-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,300 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, with roughly 8,000 to 9,000 miles covered between annual tests. For instance, the car travelled from 76,703 miles in August 2022 to 92,444 miles by August 2024. This consistent low-impact usage generally reduces wear on drivetrain components, though low-mileage can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis, as older Nissan Micras are prone to corrosion in the sills and rear wheel arches. While the recent records are clean, the single failure on 11 August 2023 at 83,070 miles suggests a specific fault was present that required attention just days before a successful pass. Inspect the suspension bushes for signs of cracking and check the brake calipers for binding or pitting. Given the age of the vehicle, also verify the condition of the rubber fluid hoses and tyres to ensure they have not perished due to age despite the low mileage.
