2012 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · BP62 PXG

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 25 October 2025 at 159,356 miles recorded no defects or advisories. This streak of passes across the last five annual tests suggests the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that avoids immediate mechanical failure or structural degradation typically seen in cars of this age. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,400 miles per year. Between November 2021 and November 2024, the car covered 40,419 miles, showing a steady usage rate. The jump from the November 2024 test to the October 2025 test shows 17,275 miles driven, which aligns with the established annual average. This regular use suggests the vehicle has avoided long periods of standing which often lead to seized seals, perished rubber, and brake corrosion. While the MOT record is clean, the buyer must focus their physical inspection on high-wear components common to the Qashqai at this mileage. You should inspect the front suspension wish arms and coil springs for signs of fatigue or tearing bushes, as these often fail after 150,000 miles. Given the mileage, check the brake discs for deep riming and verify the calipers are not binding. Although the records show no past structural issues, a close look at the underbody and rear sills is necessary to ensure that surface corrosion has not developed since the last test.
