2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · BA18 WSE

The vehicle presents a clean roadworthiness profile with a stable maintenance trend following a minor initial failure. The most recent test conducted on 24 July 2025 at 15,773 miles resulted in a pass with zero defects or advisories recorded. This indicates that since mid-2022, the vehicle has met all safety and emissions standards without any recurring mechanical or structural issues being flagged across three consecutive annual inspections. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,972 miles per year. The data shows consistent, low-intensity usage, moving from 11,809 miles in July 2023 to 14,125 miles in July 2024, and reaching 15,773 miles in 2025. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, such infrequent use cycles can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion during long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that suffer from low-use conditions. The failure on 25 July 2022 at 10,017 miles due to an ineffective offside front windscreen wiper was a minor consumable issue that was clearly resolved before the subsequent pass. Given the low mileage, check the brake discs for surface rust or pitting and inspect the suspension bushes for cracking rather than mechanical wear. Additionally, verify the age of the tyres, as rubber can perish long before the tread depth reaches the legal limit on low-mile vehicles.
