2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · BW64 GKL

The most recent test on 6 March 2026 at 138,030 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating a currently roadworthy vehicle. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record contains a notable anomaly. Two previous tests on 7 March 2025 and 29 February 2024 show failures at 128,967 miles and 119,690 miles respectively, yet the record lists no defects for these failures. A failed MOT requires at least one recorded defect, suggesting a data error or an unrecorded rectification within the same testing session. Despite these historical inconsistencies, the clean pass in March 2026 suggests the vehicle currently meets minimum safety standards. The vehicle has covered 138,030 miles over roughly 11 years, averaging approximately 12,548 miles annually, which is high for its age and indicates sustained high-mileage use rather than prolonged standing. Recent usage shows a consistent accumulation pattern. Between the February 2024 test at 119,690 miles and the March 2025 test at 128,967 miles, the Qashqai covered 9,277 miles over thirteen months. The subsequent year, up to the March 2026 test at 138,030 miles, saw a further 9,063 miles added. This steady, elevated mileage implies regular motorway or long-distance driving, which typically causes less mechanical wear than short urban trips but accelerates consumable degradation like tyres and brake components. A buyer should physically inspect the structural integrity and suspension components, as high-mileage Nissan Qashqais of this generation are prone to corrosion on rear suspension mounts and subframes, alongside wear in suspension bushes and coil springs. Although the recent test passed, the unexplained failures in 2024 and 2025 warrant a close examination of the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, as well as a thorough check of the exhaust system for leaks or catalytic converter efficiency. Tyre condition and tread depth also require verification, given the high annual mileage accelerates rubber degradation.
