2013 NISSAN QASHQAI1.6L Petrol

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 5 August 2025 at 62,506 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of five consecutive years of clean passes, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard without the typical degradation seen in cars of this vintage. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2013 model, averaging roughly 4,808 miles per year. The accumulation has remained steady and predictable, growing from 40,544 miles in August 2021 to 62,506 miles by August 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or suspicious gaps in the record that would suggest undisclosed heavy use or prolonged periods of stagnation. While the MOT record is flawless, the low annual mileage introduces specific risks that the DVSA tests may not fully capture. A buyer should manually check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and tyre sidewalls, which can crack due to age rather than wear. Brake calipers should be checked for sticking or binding, a common issue when vehicles spend long periods stationary. The lack of any recorded corrosion or structural advisories over the last five years is a positive indicator of the chassis integrity. However, a physical inspection should still focus on the underbody for surface rust and a check of the engine oil and coolant for signs of degradation. Given the clean history, the mechanical risk is low, provided the low-use symptoms mentioned above are absent.
