2017 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · CV17 BWK

The 2017 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 7 May 2025 at 70,888 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken four-year clean MOT sequence with zero advisories or failures. Mileage progression shows light, consistent use for a nine-year-old vehicle. The record moves from 51,599 miles at the 25 February 2022 test, to 56,778 miles on 2 March 2023, 64,141 miles on 8 May 2024, and 70,888 miles on 7 May 2025. That averages roughly 6,400 miles per year across the logged period, below the 7,876-mile annual norm, with no abrupt jumps or dormant gaps suggesting neglect or heavy commercial duty. The sparse, fault-free history implies the previous keeper kept basic consumables and structural items within test limits. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean sheet. Four passes with no advisories mean the tester logged no worn suspension bushes, corroded subframes, cracking brake hoses, or failing emissions at each visit, but MOT snapshots miss early-stage wear. Check the front coil springs and track-rod ends for fracturing, inspect brake disc lips and caliper slide movement, and confirm underside structural integrity around sills and suspension mounts for incipient rust. Low annual mileage can let moisture sit in the exhaust and drivetrain, so verify gearbox and differential oil condition and test the 1.2 or 1.6 petrol chain tensioner if fitted. The recorded care pattern is sound, yet only a ramp-based check confirms the Qashqai remains free of hidden mechanical drift.
