2011 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Petrol · RJ61 AET

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pass record over the last four years. The most recent test on August 21, 2025 at 109,649 miles passed with no defects or advisories, despite a technical failure just four miles earlier on the same day. This initial failure suggests a minor adjustment or a simple bulb/sensor-related issue that was rectified immediately before the re-test. Since 2022, the car has maintained a clean sheet without any recorded recurring mechanical or structural faults. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per year over the recorded period. Between the August 2022 test at 90,597 miles and the August 2025 test at 109,649 miles, the vehicle covered roughly 19,000 miles. This steady accumulation indicates regular road use rather than long periods of stagnation, which often leads to perished seals or seized brake components. The low annual mileage relative to the 15-year-old age suggests the vehicle has faced moderate strain on the drivetrain and suspension components. While the MOT history is clean of advisories, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of common Qashqai wear points that do not always trigger a failure. Focus on the rear arches and sills for developing corrosion, as the MOT tester only flags surface rust once it compromises structural integrity. Given the age, inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for signs of perishing. Because the record shows no history of brake issues, verify the actual thickness of the brake pads and discs to ensure the previous owner has maintained the consumables consistently despite the lower-than-average annual mileage.
