2016 Nissan Micra N-TEC CVT 1.2L Petrol · WNZ 4935

The vehicle maintains a high standard of roadworthiness evidenced by a consistent history of clean MOT passes. The most recent inspection on 21 March 2026 at 22,043 miles returned no defects whatsoever, indicating a stable and well-maintained condition. This streak of perfection across the last five tests suggests the car has not suffered from significant mechanical failures or structural degradation that typically affects vehicles of this age. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old car, averaging 2,204 miles per year. Between April 2022 (7,004 miles) and May 2024 (16,340 miles), the vehicle covered 9,336 miles, which represents a noticeable increase in usage compared to the earlier years where it often covered under 3,000 miles in a two-year span. While the low mileage limits wear on the CVT transmission and suspension components, the long intervals between use can sometimes lead to flat-spotted tyres or drying of rubber seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to issues during low-mileage long-term storage. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion or pitting, as infrequent use often prevents calipers from cleaning the rotors effectively. Examine the suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls for cracking or perished rubber, which occurs regardless of tread depth. Given the clean record, the structural integrity of the chassis appears sound, but verifying the fluid levels and condition of the CVT fluid is essential to ensure the gearbox has not degraded during periods of standing.
