AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2013 Nissan Qashqai shows a fully roadworthy status, with the latest DVSA test on 21 November 2025 at 191,205 miles recording a pass and no defects. Maintenance trend stays stable across the five successive annual examinations from October 2021 to November 2025, as each test returned a clean pass with zero advisories. The vehicle has avoided any flagged corrosion, brake imbalance, or emission concerns throughout this period. Lifetime mileage of 191,205 against a 13-year age implies an average of roughly 14,700 miles per year, marking the car as high-use for its class. The MOT entries reveal a consistent annual testing rhythm with no gaps: the tester logged 166,190 miles on 25 October 2021, 171,545 on 25 October 2022, 178,110 on 26 October 2023, 184,581 on 24 October 2024, and 191,205 on 21 November 2025. Yearly increments of 5,300 to 6,600 miles in the recent record sit well below the lifetime average, suggesting the earlier ownership period absorbed the bulk of motorway or fleet-style mileage. Previous keepers appear to have presented the vehicle for timely tests and met minimum pass criteria, though the clean sheets give no insight into discretionary maintenance. Despite the absence of recorded advisories, a purchaser should still commission an independent inspection of high-stress components that MOT tests may not flag until failure. The tester would examine suspension bushes and coil springs for micro-cracking or deformation under the 191k-mile load. Brake discs and calipers warrant measurement for wear lips and binding. Exhaust emissions hardware needs scrutiny for internal degradation. Structural integrity around sills and subframes demands a lift inspection for corrosion, given the salt exposure likely over a decade of use. Consumable tyres and wiper blades will have cycled several times; their present condition is not evidenced by the record.
