2008 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Petrol · YE58 AGV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available data. The most recent test on 23 October 2023 at 126,340 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean certificates dating back to March 2020, suggesting a vehicle that has been maintained to a standard that satisfies basic legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the age of the car. It covered approximately 23,000 miles between March 2020 and October 2023. The gap between the August 2022 test at 120,074 miles and the October 2023 test at 126,340 miles shows a steady usage rate of roughly 6,000 miles per year. A minor anomaly appears in August 2021, where the vehicle failed on 18 August and passed two days later at 113,061 miles, though the record lists no specific defects for either event. The absence of advisories regarding corrosion, suspension bushes, or brake wear is unusual for a 2008 model with over 126,000 miles. While the record is clean, a buyer should personally inspect the chassis and sills for structural rust, as MOT testers vary in their rigor regarding surface corrosion. Particular attention should be paid to the condition of the brake discs and coil springs, as these components typically show wear at this mileage regardless of a clean test sheet. The current MOT expired in October 2024, meaning the vehicle has been without a valid certificate for nearly nine months relative to the current date of 12 July 2026. This gap creates a significant blind spot regarding the current mechanical state of the car. A fresh inspection is necessary to ensure no new faults have developed during this period of inactivity or undocumented use.
