2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · CA16 XOW

The 2016 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 May 2025 at 52,889 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken five-year clean MOT run from 2021 through 2025. Annual tests show consistent low usage for a ten-year-old vehicle. The June 2021 test at 25,096 miles rose to 31,909 by June 2022, then 39,165 in June 2023, 46,824 in June 2024, and 52,889 by May 2025. That averages roughly 5,289 miles per year with no gaps or sudden accumulation. The record carries no advisories, failures, or flagged corrosion, suspension, brake, or emissions issues across the entire history. A clean MOT sheet does not mean the car is free of wear. Low mileage with long standing periods can allow brake calipers to seize, tyres to crack, and underbody corrosion to start unseen. The buyer should physically inspect brake discs for rust pitting, check suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing, and confirm the exhaust and structural members show no hidden rot. Given the sparse but faultless record, previous owners appear to have kept basic statutory testing current without neglect showing in DVSA data. A pre-purchase inspection remains sensible to verify consumables and structural integrity not captured by the MOT.
