2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · KR14 ABO

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, though the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather rather than preventative care. The most recent test in March 2023 at 104,152 miles passed, but it highlighted that both rear tyres had perished. Given that over three years have passed since this record, the vehicle is currently overdue for its annual MOT, and the current state of rubber-based components and braking efficiency cannot be verified without a fresh on-site inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with a typical-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per year to reach the total of 104,152 miles. There is a significant gap in data between December 2018 and December 2019, where the vehicle covered over 15,000 miles in a single year, followed by more moderate usage. The lack of recorded tests since early 2023 suggests the car may have sat stationary for an extended period, which often leads to the degradation of brake fluid and tyre sidewalls. A buyer should specifically inspect the braking system and suspension, as these have shown recurring issues. The failure in 2017 revealed pitted and scored discs across all four corners alongside poor parking brake efficiency, while the 2018 test flagged binding rear brakes. The 2022 advisory regarding an oil misting on the nearside front shock absorber indicates the beginning of a seal failure that likely requires replacement now. Check for dry rot on the tyres, as the 2023 report of perished rubber suggests the owner may neglect age-related component degradation.
