2010 NISSAN QASHQAI1.5L Diesel

The vehicle appears roadworthy based on its last recorded test, though the MOT history is now significantly outdated. The most recent pass on 12 September 2023 at 139,646 miles showed no defects, suggesting a stable mechanical condition at that time. However, the car has not undergone a documented inspection in over two years relative to the current date of 25 July 2026, leaving its current state unverified. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 8,728 miles per year. There was a notable increase of 15,436 miles between the June 2022 test at 124,210 miles and the September 2023 test at 139,646 miles. This indicates a period of heavier use just before the vehicle stopped appearing in the MOT records. A buyer must prioritize a physical inspection of the chassis and suspension. While the records show no specific failures for suspension bushes, coil springs, or structural corrosion, the lack of recent data is a risk for a 16-year-old Nissan. The gap since 2023 means brake discs could have developed surface corrosion and tyres may have perished or fallen below legal tread limits. Check for binding calipers and exhaust leaks during a test drive. Because the vehicle failed and passed within five days in September 2023, it suggests a minor defect was rectified quickly, though the record does not specify the fault. Given the mileage and age, a full service history check is necessary to ensure the drivetrain has been maintained beyond the basic MOT requirements.
