2019 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · BT69 WHJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward minor mechanical wear as it ages. The most recent test in November 2025 at 38,233 miles resulted in a pass despite identifying a damaged windscreen and a slight play in the nearside front track rod end ball joint. These issues represent a departure from the clean record seen in 2024, suggesting that the vehicle is now beginning to require more frequent component attention. At seven years old with 38,233 miles recorded, the Qashqai has averaged approximately 5,462 miles per year. This low mileage profile is consistent across the history, showing a gap of 9,120 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests and another 7,932 miles between late 2023 and late 2024. While low mileage generally preserves the drivetrain, the intervals between tests can sometimes lead to corrosion or rubber components drying out if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should specifically inspect the front suspension geometry to ensure the play in the track rod end noted in 2025 has been rectified, as ignoring steering components affects handling and causes uneven wear. The rear braking system also warrants scrutiny; the 2023 test flagged both thin pads and pitted discs on both rear wheels. While these parts were likely replaced then, the current thickness and condition of the hardware should be verified to ensure no rapid degradation has occurred since. Additionally, the windscreen crack mentioned in the 2025 test must be checked for structural stability to ensure it does not spread into the driver's primary line of vision.
