2014 NISSAN QASHQAI1.5L Diesel

The vehicle presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile, evidenced by the most recent MOT pass on 23 July 2025 at 93,641 miles with zero defects recorded. While the history contains two instances of failed tests in January and July 2024, these appear to be administrative or procedural anomalies rather than mechanical failures, as no specific defects were logged against the vehicle during those sessions. The absence of recurring advisories for suspension, braking, or structural components suggests the car has been maintained to a standard that avoids common long-term wear trends. At 93,641 miles over a 12-year lifespan, the vehicle averages approximately 7,800 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for this model. The mileage accumulation has remained consistent, with roughly 8,700 miles added between the July 2024 and July 2025 tests. This steady usage indicates the vehicle has not been subjected to prolonged periods of inactivity, which often leads to seized calipers, perished rubber components, or fuel system degradation. The record is notably sparse regarding component replacement, implying that major wear items may be approaching their service limits. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common points of fatigue on the Nissan Qashqai platform at this mileage. Although the MOT history is clean, the age of the vehicle necessitates a thorough check of the brake discs and pads for signs of corrosion or uneven wear, particularly on the inner faces. Verify the integrity of the exhaust system and check for any signs of oil seepage around the engine block or transmission casing. Given the lack of recent advisories, ensure that the vehicle has received independent servicing to supplement the MOT checks, as the test only confirms minimum safety standards at the time of inspection rather than the overall mechanical health of the powertrain.
