2012 NISSAN QASHQAI1.6L Petrol

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on 16 June 2025 at 99,692 miles. While the history shows a pattern of immediate failures followed by passes in both 2024 and 2025, the lack of recorded defects upon passing indicates that the previous owners addressed identified issues promptly. This suggests a reactive approach to basic maintenance rather than a trend of worsening mechanical or structural degradation. The mileage profile is consistent with typical usage for a fourteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,100 miles per annum. The data record shows a steady progression from 87,087 miles in June 2023 to 93,952 miles in June 2024, and finally 99,692 miles in June 2025. This regular accumulation suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation which can degrade components, though the age of the car necessitates scrutiny regarding age-related perish of rubber components and fluid seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension system and braking components, as these are common points of failure for the Qashqai at this mileage. Although the MOT record does not list specific advisories, the recurring failures suggest the tester previously flagged items like bushes, coil springs, or brake calipers. Given the vehicle's age, a thorough check of the chassis for structural corrosion along the sills and wheel arches is essential to ensure no hidden rust has compromised the structural integrity of the frame despite the clean pass records.
