2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · BP66 ADV

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-09-03 at 61,002 miles recorded a pass and a fail on the same date, with no defects noted. This inconsistency in outcomes suggests potential data entry errors or procedural issues, complicating the assessment of its current roadworthiness. Previous tests from 2024-09-12 (52,955 miles) and 2023-09-07 (45,313 miles) were both passed with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance record over the preceding three years. However, the lack of detailed defect reports in the latest test limits confidence in the vehicle’s mechanical condition. Mileage progression shows a steady increase of approximately 7,000–8,000 miles annually, aligning with the vehicle’s age and typical usage. The gap between the 2024 and 2025 tests covers 8,047 miles, reflecting a slightly higher annual average but not an alarming rate. No significant gaps or rapid accumulation are evident, suggesting consistent use. The absence of recurring issues in prior MOTs implies the owner maintained the vehicle to standard, though the 2025 test anomalies warrant further scrutiny. A physical inspection should focus on components prone to wear over 61,000 miles, such as suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs, which may show signs of fatigue. The exhaust system and corrosion risks, particularly in body seams, should also be checked. While no structural defects were recorded, the ambiguous 2025 test results underscore the need to verify the vehicle’s actual condition, including fluid levels, tyre tread, and brake functionality, to confirm compliance with road safety standards.
