2016 NISSAN QASHQAI1.2L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record in its most recent inspections. The April 2026 test at 56,726 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a similarly clean pass in April 2025 at 52,155 miles. This recent history indicates that the vehicle is currently being maintained to a standard that meets all essential regulatory requirements. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2016 model, averaging approximately 5,673 miles per year. The data shows a consistent, gradual increase in distance covered, moving from 20,681 miles in March 2019 to the current 56,726 miles. This pattern suggests regular, light usage rather than long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate certain risks associated with stationary vehicles, such as seized brake calipers or perished rubber components. The MOT history reveals a pattern of minor consumable maintenance rather than significant mechanical or structural failures. The tester flagged worn rear brake pads in April 2024 at 46,110 miles and noted half-worn rear pads in April 2022 at 33,337 miles. While these are standard wear items, they show the owner has addressed brake component depletion over time. The record also shows recurring issues with windscreen wipers in 2021 and 2023, both of which were resolved to achieve a pass. A prospective buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and underbody components. Although the most recent tests were clear, the history of thinning brake pads suggests checking the remaining life of the discs and pads. Given the low annual mileage, it is also prudent to inspect the condition of the tyres and suspension bushes for any signs of age-related cracking or perishing that may not be immediately apparent through the MOT advisory system.
