2020 Nissan Micra 1.0L Petrol · WR70 ABO

This Nissan Micra has maintained a clean MOT history with no defects recorded across its most recent three tests, all of which passed without fail. The latest inspection on 2025-09-24—just under a year ago—confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards, though the absence of any advisories or minor faults means no red flags were raised even in areas prone to wear. The stability of this record suggests consistent upkeep, though the lack of advisories also implies the tester did not identify any borderline issues that might warrant closer scrutiny. The recorded mileage of 27,851 miles at the time of the most recent MOT indicates unusually low annual usage, averaging around 4,642 miles per year over the past six years. This is well below the typical range for a vehicle of this age, which could point to either light daily use or prolonged periods of inactivity. The mileage increments between tests—5,100 miles between 2023 and 2024, and 7,100 miles between 2024 and 2025—are steady but do not suggest aggressive driving or heavy wear. However, low mileage alone does not preclude underlying issues, particularly in components like suspension bushes, coil springs, or corrosion-prone areas that degrade regardless of usage. Given the clean MOT record, a buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of suspension components, including the condition of bushes, ball joints, and coil springs, as these are often overlooked in low-mileage vehicles but can deteriorate due to age and environmental exposure. Brake discs and calipers should also be examined for uneven wear or binding, even though no faults were recorded, as early signs of corrosion or glazing can develop without causing immediate failure. Structural integrity, particularly around wheel arches and sills, should be checked for corrosion, as rust can compromise the chassis over time even with minimal mileage. Finally, the exhaust system and emissions components—though not flagged—should be inspected for leaks or excessive rust, as these can fail without triggering an MOT advisory.
