Our Verdict
A strong recommendation for buyers seeki
While the MOT history is clean, these records do not confirm the service history. Buyers should verify the oil change intervals and check for evidence of Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) regeneration, especially if the car has been used primarily for short city trips. Ensure the service book is stamped to confirm the 1.5L diesel engine has been maintained according to manufacturer schedules.
Given the clean record, negotiation should focus on the remaining tyre tread and brake pad life, as these are wear-and-tear items not highlighted as defects in the most recent tests. Check for any missing or loose undertray fixings, as these were noted in previous MOT inspections.
As a 1.5L diesel, this Qashqai is designed for fuel efficiency, making it a cost-effective choice for higher-mileage drivers. Annual costs will include road tax based on its 2018 diesel emissions bracket and insurance costs typical for a family crossover in its insurance group.
Typical maintenance for this model involves periodic tyre replacements and brake servicing. Based on the engine size and vehicle type, the annual expenditure on fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance is expected to be moderate.
Pay close attention to the underside of the vehicle; MOT records from 2022 to 2024 specifically mention undertrays and guards that limited the inspector's ability to perform a full inspection. Ensure these are secure and that no leaks are present that may have been obscured.
Additionally, inspect the ball joints and headlamps, as these are among the top failure reasons for the Qashqai according to aggregate data. Check the tyres for uneven wear, which is another frequent issue for this model, despite this specific vehicle passing its recent tests.
This silver 2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.5 diesel has recorded 63,680 miles as of September 2026. Its MOT history is notably consistent, with five tests recorded and no failures. The mileage is closely aligned with the model aggregate average of 7,707 miles per year.
The Qashqai has an average MOT pass rate of 79.3%, with headlamps, tyres, and ball joints being the most frequent causes of failure.
