2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · DL65 ACJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, having passed its most recent MOT on March 16, 2026 at 77,666 miles. Although the record shows a failure on that same date, the immediate pass with no recorded defects suggests a minor issue was rectified quickly prior to the retest. Since the February 2023 test, the car has maintained a clean sheet, passing without any recorded mechanical or structural failures over the last three years. The mileage data indicates a consistent usage pattern of approximately 7,000 miles per year, which aligns with typical annual expectations for an eleven-year-old vehicle. Between February 2023 (50,039 miles) and February 2024 (56,935 miles), the car covered 6,896 miles, followed by a further 20,721 miles leading to the March 2026 test. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which helps protect components like seals and bushings from drying out or seizing. Given the lack of recorded advisories in the MOT history, a physical inspection should focus on age-related wear rather than documented mechanical neglect. The buyer should verify the condition of the suspension arm bushes and coil springs for cracking, as these often degrade without triggering a failure until they reach critical wear. Checking the brake discs for uneven wear or thinning and inspecting the underbody for emerging surface corrosion are also prudent steps to ensure the clean MOT history reflects the actual physical state of the chassis.
