2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Diesel · A6 STP

The 2014 Nissan Qashqai presents a currently roadworthy status following a clean pass on 15 October 2025 at 87,804 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle carries no advisories or defects in any test, and the most recent failure on the same date at 87,801 miles recorded no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at the test centre rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage progression shows light to average use for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The record runs 73,079 miles in August 2023, 80,066 miles at the August 2024 failure, 80,076 miles at the October 2024 pass, and 87,801 to 87,804 miles by October 2025. That equates to roughly 7,000 miles per year, below the national average, suggesting gentle motoring with a nine-month gap between the 2024 failure and pass that implies the car was laid up or received limited use. The absence of flagged items such as worn suspension bushes, corroded subframes, or failing brake discs points to no recurring mechanical trend in the official data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as MOT tests at this age often miss early floor pan or sill rust unless severe. Given the clean record and low annual mileage, prior keepers appear to have maintained basic statutory compliance. Verify the two same-day 2025 entries with DVSA to confirm the failure cause, and check consumables like tyres and wiper blades that the tester did not advise on.
