2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · NG65 AGV

The 2016 Nissan Qashqai remains roadworthy as of its most recent MOT on 2025-11-28 at 71,945 miles, with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend shows stability over the past 18 months, as the vehicle has passed its last three tests without issues. However, the 2024-11-26 records reveal inconsistencies: a failed test at 63,380 miles and a subsequent pass at 63,833 miles on the same day, suggesting potential administrative errors or unresolved minor faults. No structural, suspension, or brake-related defects were flagged in the latest assessment, indicating the car has been maintained to acceptable standards. The vehicle’s mileage of 71,945 miles aligns with its 10-year age, averaging 7,194 miles annually. A notable jump from 56,492 miles in 2023 to 63,833 miles in 2024 reflects a 7,341-mile increase over 12 months, slightly above the average but not extreme. The 2023-11-28 records include a pass and fail on the same date, which may indicate a procedural error or unresolved minor issues. Despite this, the absence of recurring defects in later tests suggests the owner addressed any problems promptly. A buyer should verify the suspension system, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, as these components often degrade over time. The brake discs and calipers should also be inspected for uneven wear or binding, as these can develop without immediate MOT failures. While no exhaust emissions or corrosion issues were noted, the vehicle’s age warrants a thorough check of the underbody for rust, especially around the chassis rails. The MOT history provides limited insight into consumable wear, so tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition should be confirmed during a physical inspection.
