2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · KR14 ABF

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 16 July 2025 at 84,975 miles, but carries two advisories – a nearside rear tyre showing slight damage or perishing (5.2.3 (d)(ii)) and front brake pads wearing thin (1.1.13 (a)(ii)). The maintenance trend is stable; earlier faults such as an exhaust CO excess in May 2019 and a non‑working side repeater in July 2024 have been resolved, while recurring tyre wear suggests basic upkeep has been inconsistent rather than deteriorating. Mileage accumulates at roughly 7,100 miles per year over the 12‑year life, a typical figure for the class. Annual MOTs are recorded without gaps, with mileage jumps ranging from 6,000 to 8,500 miles each year, indicating steady use and no sudden spikes. The record is complete, providing a clear longitudinal view. A buyer should inspect the rear tyre for sidewall cracking and overall tread condition, check front brake pads for wear depth, and verify that the side repeater operates. The exhaust system should be examined for carbon buildup, while front suspension bushes and rear brake discs merit a visual check for corrosion or uneven wear. Given the vehicle’s age, a thorough look for chassis rust or floor panel corrosion is also advisable. Overall, the Qashqai remains roadworthy with no major structural issues, but the advisories highlight consumables that need attention. Prompt replacement of the rear tyre and front brake pads, together with routine servicing, will preserve the stable mechanical history and ensure continued compliance.
