2013 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · VO63 BZM

This Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent history of passing its MOT tests. The most recent pass on 30 August 2025 at 123,459 miles was achieved with no defects recorded, indicating the vehicle currently meets the minimum legal safety standards. A failure on 27 August 2025 was resolved within three days, though the lack of recorded defects for that specific failure is atypical for DVSA documentation. The mileage accumulation is consistent and aligns with typical usage for a thirteen year old vehicle. The car covered 9,476 miles between August 2023 and August 2024, and a slightly higher 9,476 miles between August 2024 and August 2025. This steady pattern suggests regular use rather than periods of prolonged standing, which generally helps maintain seals and battery health. The absence of advisories or failures regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or structural corrosion over the last four years is uncommon for a vehicle of this age and mileage. This clean record implies a proactive approach to maintenance or a very light duty cycle. However, the lack of recorded wear on consumables like tyres or wiper blades across multiple years may suggest the tester was lenient or the owner replaced parts immediately before the tests. A physical inspection should focus on the areas the MOT record does not capture. Check for oil leaks around the engine and gearbox, and inspect the condition of the timing chain or belt depending on the specific engine variant. Given the mileage, verify the service history for evidence of fluid changes and filter replacements to ensure the drivetrain has been maintained beyond the basic safety requirements of an MOT.
