Our Verdict
This is a strong candidate for buyers se
Given the low mileage relative to its age, your primary focus should be on ensuring the service history supports this usage. Check for regular oil changes, as diesel engines of this era can be sensitive to maintenance intervals. Since the 2022 MOT noted worn rear tyres and brake pads, verify that these components have been replaced and that no new advisories regarding braking or suspension have appeared since.
As a 1.5L diesel, this Qashqai is positioned in a relatively efficient tax and insurance bracket for its class. Fuel economy should be competitive for a mid-sized crossover, though actual figures will depend on driving style and load. Maintenance costs for this model are generally predictable, though you should budget for typical diesel-specific requirements like fuel filter changes and potential DPF considerations if driven primarily in urban environments.
Pay close attention to the tyres and braking system. Although the 2022 MOT recorded worn tyres and thin brake pads, the subsequent three tests showed no defects; however, a physical inspection is still necessary to ensure current tread depths and pad thickness are adequate. You should also inspect the suspension components, as ball joints are a common failure reason for this model aggregate.
This 2010 silver Nissan Qashqai has covered 69,887 miles, which is significantly lower than the model average of 7,707 miles per year for its age. While the 2022 MOT highlighted some wear on the rear tyres and brake pads, the vehicle has since cleared three consecutive tests with no defects recorded. Its 1.5L diesel engine remains a popular choice for those balancing economy with utility.
Aggregate data for this model shows a 79.3% average MOT pass rate, with common failure points being headlamps, tyres, and ball joints.
