2012 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · AF62 WXS

The 2012 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent test on 13 June 2025 at 102,546 miles where the tester recorded no defects. The two preceding annual passes, on 17 June 2024 at 95,541 miles and 29 June 2023 at 91,852 miles, also carried clean sheets. No advisories for corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions appear anywhere in the supplied record, which indicates the vehicle has not shown worsening mechanical faults across the observed period. Mileage has accumulated at a typical rate for a fourteen-year-old car, averaging roughly 7,325 miles per year against the 102,546 miles recorded. The jump from 91,786 miles on 26 June 2023 to 95,493 miles on 14 June 2024 shows about 3,700 miles in that year, then 7,005 miles to the 2025 test, both unremarkable. The history is sparse in failures but reveals a pattern: the car failed on 14 June 2024 at 95,493 miles and again on 26 June 2023 at 91,786 miles, yet in both instances the DVSA entry logs no defects. That suggests administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault, and the owner secured a pass within days on each occasion without recorded rectification. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of structural integrity and underside corrosion given the vehicle's age and the absence of any advisory data that would evidence checks were made. The clean MOT run offers no insight into coil springs, track rod ends, or binding calipers, so these consumable and safety-critical items warrant hands-on verification. The repeated no-defect failures followed by immediate passes imply the previous keeper addressed whatever halted the first attempt promptly, but the record itself gives no technical detail to confirm the work done.
