2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · BA18 ACZ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the available MOT history. The most recent test conducted on 29 November 2021 at 94,347 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle met all minimum standards at that time. This suggests that the previous owner addressed any minor issues that might have appeared prior to that inspection. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a 2018 registration, averaging approximately 11,800 miles per year. Between the tests in May 2021 at 78,067 miles and November 2021 at 94,347 miles, the car covered 16,280 miles in just six months. This rate indicates regular use rather than long periods of standing, which generally helps keep engine components properly lubricated. However, the last recorded test is now over four years old, meaning the current mechanical state of the vehicle is unverified by official data. A buyer should conduct a close inspection of the suspension and tyre condition. The May 2021 test flagged an offside rear tyre worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge, which often points to alignment issues or worn suspension bushes. Given the high mileage since the last test, it is vital to check for excessive wear on coil springs, shock absorbers, and brake components. Since the MOT record is now outdated, a thorough physical check of the underbody for structural integrity and corrosion is necessary to ensure no significant issues have developed since the 2021 inspection.
