2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · BD16 ADV

The 2016 Nissan Qashqai demonstrates consistent roadworthiness, with all MOT tests from 2021 to 2025 recording no defects. The most recent 2025 test at 93,873 miles confirmed compliance, indicating a stable maintenance trend. No recurring issues or escalating faults are evident across the six-year history, suggesting the vehicle has been well-maintained. The absence of advisories or failures implies the owner prioritized regular servicing, though the lack of detailed defect notes limits insight into minor wear patterns. The mileage progression aligns with typical annual usage, averaging 9,387 miles per year over 10 years. Gaps between tests are minimal, with annual checks from 2021 to 2025. Notably, the 2024 test at 83,163 miles showed a 11,142-mile increase from 2023, which could indicate seasonal or usage-based fluctuations. However, no anomalies in wear or component stress are flagged in the records. The clean history suggests no significant mechanical or structural degradation, though higher mileage in recent years may warrant closer scrutiny of consumables like tyres and brake pads. A physical inspection should focus on suspension components, particularly bushes and coil springs, which can degrade over time without triggering MOT failures. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, as these often develop gradually. Structural integrity remains unverified by the records, so underbody rust or panel damage warrants attention. The vehicle’s consistent MOT performance supports its reliability, but a hands-on assessment is essential to confirm the absence of hidden issues not captured in the test data.
