2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · BT68 ACO

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its last five consecutive MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-11-14 assessment at 26,706 miles. All prior tests from 2021 to 2024 showed passing results with no faults, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical issues. The absence of advisories or critical failures across this period suggests the car has been well-kept, with no signs of deteriorating systems or components requiring urgent attention. The mileage progression aligns with an average annual usage of 3,338 miles, reflecting a low-mileage profile for an eight-year-old vehicle. Each MOT interval shows a steady increase of approximately 3,000–3,500 miles, with no abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps between tests. This pattern suggests regular, controlled usage rather than infrequent or heavy driving. The clean record over five years implies minimal wear on consumables like tyres and wiper blades, though the low mileage could indicate periods of inactivity, which may affect fluid longevity or electrical system health. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, which may degrade over time without regular use. While no brake-related issues were flagged, inspecting brake discs and calipers for corrosion or uneven wear is advisable. The exhaust system and structural integrity should also be checked, as low-mileage vehicles can develop rust in hidden areas. Despite the clean MOT history, a pre-purchase inspection is recommended to confirm the absence of undetected faults, particularly in systems not assessed during MOTs.
