2021 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · CF21 HKJ

The vehicle remains roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. The most recent test in April 2026 at 58,104 miles passed without failures, yet revealed recurring minor defects including defective windscreen wiper blades and a perished nearside rear tyre. The trend is stable in terms of major mechanical failures, but the data suggests the owner only addresses components when they approach failure or legal limits. The mileage accumulation of 58,104 miles over five years is consistent with the national average, averaging to approximately 11,600 miles per annum. The record shows steady usage, with 11,613 miles covered between the March 2024 and 2025 tests, and another 9,828 miles covered between March 2025 and April 2026. This regularity suggests the vehicle has been subjected to consistent driving cycles rather than long periods of stationary, which is generally positive for rubber components and fluid seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front axle and tyres. The 2024 test flagged thin brake pads at 36,663 miles, and the 2025 test noted a nearside front tyre worn on the edge at 48,276 miles. This specific wear pattern often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes requiring attention. Additionally, the repeated failure of wiper blades across three consecutive years suggests that basic consumable maintenance is overlooked until the MOT presentation, necessitating a thorough check of the current state of all rubber seals and blade surfaces before purchase.
