2014 NISSAN QASHQAI1.2L Petrol

The 2014 Nissan Qashqai demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its most recent 2026 MOT at 70,529 miles. The prior three annual tests from 2023 to 2025 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance. A single failed 2024 MOT at 62,617 miles was recorded but listed as ‘no defects’, suggesting a potential administrative error or technical anomaly. Overall, the vehicle shows no recurring mechanical or structural faults requiring immediate attention. The car’s mileage of 70,529 miles over 12 years equates to approximately 5,877 miles annually, below the UK average for its age. This low usage could imply infrequent driving or extended periods of inactivity, which might affect components like tyres, batteries, or fluid systems. The MOT history is largely uneventful, with tests spaced consistently year-on-year. Notably, the 2024 failed test occurred on the same day as a passed test at identical mileage, raising questions about data accuracy but not mechanical integrity. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, which may degrade during periods of inactivity. Brake discs and calipers should be inspected for corrosion or uneven wear, as low mileage can mask normal friction losses. Structural rust remains a concern for older vehicles, particularly in coastal or high-humidity areas, though no such issues were flagged in the MOT records. The absence of advisories or failures in recent tests supports the vehicle’s reliability, but physical inspection is recommended to confirm the state of non-MOT-covered systems.
