2013 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Diesel · S66 GEB

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the latest MOT data. The most recent test conducted on 15 May 2025 at 76,109 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating the car currently meets minimum safety standards. While the history shows failures immediately preceding passes in both 2024 and 2025, these appear to have been administrative or minor-adjustment issues that were rectified quickly before the successful subsequent tests. The mileage profile is notably low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,855 miles annually. Between May 2023 at 61,859 miles and May 2025 at 76,109 miles, the car covered 14,250 miles over two years. This consistent, low usage suggests light use, which typically reduces mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine components. However, low-mileage vehicles of this age are susceptible to degradation of rubber components, such as bushes and tyres, if they have sat stationary for extended periods between tests. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on components prone to wear from the vehicle's age despite the low mileage. Examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or perishing, as these degrade over time regardless of distance driven. Since the record shows no recurring brake or exhaust failures, check for binding calipers or excessive corrosion on the brake discs to ensure the system remains active. Verifying the structural integrity of the chassis and underside sills is vital to confirm that no hidden rust has compromised the frame since the last clean inspections.
