2020 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · AF20 YKY

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, but the maintenance history reveals a consistent trend of deferred consumable component replacement. While the most recent test in June 2025 at 70,369 miles passed, it carried forward multiple advisories regarding worn and pitted rear brake discs, thin rear brake pads, and perished rear tyres. These issues have persisted across the last three years, suggesting that the owner only addresses mechanical faults when they reach the point of inspection failure rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage progression is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,700 miles per annum. Between the 34,933 miles in June 2023 and 52,924 miles in June 2024, the car covered nearly 18,000 miles, followed by another 17,445 miles leading to the 2025 test. This steady usage indicates regular motorway driving, which explains the accelerated wear observed on the braking and suspension components noted in the record. A buyer must perform a thorough physical inspection of the rear braking system, as the record shows recurring reports of pitting and scoring on the discs since 2023. The presence of thin pads in the 2025 test indicates the assembly is likely nearing immediate replacement requirements. Furthermore, the repeated mentions of perishing and cracking on rear tyres suggest the rubber is failing due to age rather than tread depth, which poses a safety risk. The buyer should also verify the windscreen and wiper blades, as these have been flagged as defective or damaged across multiple testing cycles without clear evidence of resolution.
