NISSAN QASHQAI2013 · 1.5L Diesel

The 2013 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its most recent MOT test on 2025-11-18 at 145,741 miles, which resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. The preceding test on 2025-11-14, just four days earlier, recorded a failure but no specific defects, suggesting a potential administrative or procedural issue rather than a mechanical concern. Subsequent tests from 2024-10-31 to 2022-11-02 also showed consistent passing with no defects, indicating a generally well-maintained vehicle. The absence of critical failures in the last three years implies no significant deterioration in structural integrity, braking systems, or emissions. The vehicle’s mileage of 145,741 miles over 13 years equates to an average of 11,211 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. Tests spaced approximately 12 months apart reveal no abrupt mileage spikes or extended periods of inactivity, which might otherwise signal neglect or excessive wear. The steady progression of mileage from 111,310 in 2022 to 145,741 in 2025 suggests regular operation, though the lack of detailed defect reports limits insight into component-specific maintenance. While the MOT history lacks explicit mechanical issues, the buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, such as coil springs and bushes, which often degrade over time. The absence of corrosion reports does not preclude hidden rust in critical areas like the underbody or chassis. Additionally, the rear brakes and exhaust system, common wear points, warrant inspection for binding calipers or leaks. The vehicle’s recent pass indicates compliance, but a physical check is essential to confirm the absence of undetected faults.
