2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Diesel · A11 CAK

The 2014 Nissan Qashqai presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 27 October 2025 at 44,075 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year sequence of passes. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, advisories, or recurring mechanical concerns across the available history. Annual mileage sits well below typical use for a twelve-year-old car. The record runs from 30,220 miles at the 12 October 2021 test through 34,747 miles in October 2022, 38,455 miles in October 2023, 42,199 miles in October 2024, and 44,075 miles in October 2025. That averages roughly 3,500 miles per year. The clean test sheets across this low-mileage span suggest the previous keeper used the car lightly and kept it to a basic annual test standard with no flagged neglect. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection beneath the body and chassis. Low annual mileage combined with the car's age means dormant corrosion may develop on structural members, subframes, and suspension mounting points even where surface condition looks sound. The MOT record shows no rust, exhaust, or suspension bushes issues, but testers only record visible defects at the time of the test. Check the brake discs, calipers, and handbrake mechanism for seizing from infrequent use. Inspect tyres for sidewall cracking from standing and verify fluid intervals were kept despite the low miles. The Qashqai's coil springs and steering joints warrant a physical check, as these wear with age irrespective of odometer reading.
