2010 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · AF60 VUB

The 2010 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 29 September 2025 at 120,172 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior annual tests in October 2024 and October 2023 also closed as passes with no advisories. The two failure entries on 26 October 2024 at 112,573 miles and 24 October 2023 at 105,861 miles show no defects logged by the tester, indicating administrative or presentational rejections rather than mechanical faults. The owner has kept the vehicle on a consistent twelve-month test cycle with clean sheets for the last three years. Mileage sits at 120,172 against a 16-year life, an average of roughly 7,511 miles per year and typical for the model age. The record moves from 105,861 miles in October 2023 to 112,588 miles in October 2024, then to 120,172 miles by September 2025. That is about 6,700 miles in year one and 7,600 in year two, a steady and unremarkable accumulation with no gap or spike suggesting neglect or excessive commercial use. The sparse history gives little wear signal beyond normal ageing of consumables and suspension components. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the vehicle's age and 120k mileage, as these items wear silently between clean MOTs. The repeated zero-defect failures mean no binding calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues were formally flagged, but DVSA systems occasionally reject on documentation alone. Verify the V5C and test certificate for those two failure dates to confirm no hidden rectification work. Given the absence of advisories across the last three passes, previous keepers appear to have maintained basic upkeep without deferred structural risk. Treat the Qashqai as a sound used purchase subject to a standard pre-sale check of underbody integrity and tyre condition.
