2013 NISSAN QASHQAI1.6L Petrol

The 2013 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with no defects recorded in its last five consecutive MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-10-25 assessment at 94,964 miles. All prior tests from 2021 to 2024 also passed without issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical concerns. The vehicle’s compliance with safety standards appears robust, with no advisories or failures suggesting urgent repairs. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging 7,305 miles annually. Tests conducted every 12 months from 2021 to 2025 show steady accumulation without abrupt spikes or prolonged inactivity, implying regular operation. The 81,461-mile 2023 test marked a 7,831-mile increase from the 2022 73,630-mile assessment, reflecting normal wear rather than excessive strain. No gaps in testing or irregularities in mileage suggest the owner prioritized routine compliance. While the MOT history lacks specific mechanical faults, a buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as worn bushes or coil springs, which often degrade over 13 years. Brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear, and the exhaust system inspected for corrosion, as these are common age-related issues. Structural rust, though not flagged in tests, warrants scrutiny in body panels and underbody areas. The absence of recorded defects is positive but does not eliminate the need for a hands-on inspection to confirm the vehicle’s ongoing reliability.
