2020 Nissan Micra 1.0L Petrol · WF20 NFG

The 2020 Nissan Micra presents a clean and stable maintenance trend, with its most recent MOT on 26 November 2025 at 75,417 miles passing with zero defects. Every recorded test in the history, stretching back to April 2022, has passed without a single advisory or failure. This is a strong indicator of consistent upkeep and no recurring mechanical or structural faults. The vehicle has been maintained to a standard that consistently meets DVSA roadworthiness thresholds across five consecutive tests. The mileage accumulation tells a clear story of sustained, above-average use. Covering roughly 12,570 miles per year, the car has been driven significantly more than the typical annual average of 8,000 to 10,000 miles for a vehicle of this age. The jump from 59,091 miles in November 2024 to 75,417 miles by November 2025 represents 16,326 miles in a single year, a notable acceleration in usage during the most recent period. Despite this heavier workload, the MOT record shows no deterioration in condition, suggesting the powertrain, braking system, and structural components have coped well under the increased demand. The absence of any advisories across the entire history is unusual for a six-year-old car with this mileage. Most vehicles of this age and usage level will typically present at least minor advisories around suspension bushes, tyre wear patterns, or brake disc lip. The clean record implies either diligent preventative maintenance by the previous keeper or a vehicle that has been predominantly used on longer motorway journeys, which tends to be gentler on brakes, clutch, and suspension than stop-start urban driving. A buyer should still carry out a thorough in-person inspection focused on areas the MOT does not fully assess. Check the condition of the underbody for surface corrosion, particularly around suspension mounting points, sills, and the exhaust system, as these can develop between tests. Examine the tyre sidewalls for perishing and verify even tread wear across all four wheels, given the high mileage. Test the clutch bite point and gear selection for smooth operation, and inspect the brake discs and pads for uneven wear that may not yet meet the MOT failure threshold. The clean record is encouraging, but a pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic remains the most reliable way to confirm the car's long-term condition.
