2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · BJ18 BGU

The 2018 Nissan Qashqai remains roadworthy based on its most recent MOT test on 2026-01-09 at 75,424 miles, which recorded no defects. The vehicle has shown a stable maintenance trend over the past three years, with no recurring mechanical or structural issues flagged in its MOT history. The last three consecutive tests—2024-02-12, 2023-03-20, and 2025-02-03—also showed no defects, despite a failed test at the same mileage in 2025-02-03, which similarly recorded no issues. This suggests the vehicle has maintained consistent compliance with safety standards. The mileage of 75,424 miles over eight years aligns with average annual usage of 9,428 miles, indicating moderate wear. The MOT records show no abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps in mileage, with consistent testing intervals. The 2024-02-12 test at 55,759 miles and the 2023-03-20 test at 47,425 miles reveal a steady progression, though the data lacks detailed technical findings. This clean record implies the previous owner prioritized regular maintenance, though it does not confirm the absence of hidden issues. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly the rear coil springs and bushes, given the vehicle’s age and mileage. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion, as these are common in older models. Structural integrity, especially around the chassis and body seams, warrants scrutiny, as rust or fatigue could develop over time. The absence of advisories in the MOT history is positive, but a physical inspection is essential to confirm the vehicle’s condition beyond recorded tests.
