2017 NISSAN QASHQAI1.2L Petrol

The 2017 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile, with the most recent MOT on 2024-10-21 at 74,815 miles recording a pass and no defects. Previous tests from 2023-10-24 (67,766 miles) and 2023-04-05 (64,638 miles) also passed, while a failed test on 2023-04-04 (64,637 miles) recorded no defects. This suggests consistent compliance with safety standards, though the unexplained failure in April 2023 warrants scrutiny. No recurring mechanical issues or escalating defects are evident in the record, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to acceptable levels. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging 8,313 miles annually. The gap between the 2022-04-25 test (49,202 miles) and 2023-04-05 test (64,638 miles) reflects a 15,436-mile increase over 11 months, which may indicate heavier usage or infrequent motoring. Subsequent tests show gradual accumulation, with 7,049 miles added between October 2023 and October 2024. The absence of significant mileage spikes or prolonged inactivity suggests the vehicle has been driven consistently, though no data confirms whether it was stored or used daily. A buyer should verify the condition of suspension components, as no MOTs mention bushes or coil springs, which can degrade over time. Brake systems, particularly rear calipers and discs, merit inspection, as binding or uneven wear often goes undetected in standard tests. Structural integrity should also be assessed, as corrosion or panel damage may not appear in MOT records. The lack of advisories on tyres, exhaust, or emissions implies no urgent concerns, but a pre-purchase inspection is advisable to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical and body condition beyond recorded data.
