2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · CV18 AFJ

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, having passed its most recent MOT on June 2 2026 at 63,195 miles with no defects recorded. This indicates an improving maintenance trend following a period of minor wear-related issues identified in previous years. The clean sheet on the two most recent tests suggests that the previous owner has addressed outstanding mechanical requirements that were previously flagged by the tester. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical annual use for its age, averaging approximately 7,900 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage recorded between June 2025 and June 2026, where the vehicle covered over 18,000 miles in just twelve months. Prior to this period, the accumulation was much lower, such as the 10,000 miles driven between January 2022 and January 2023. This recent spike in mileage likely explains the accelerated wear on consumable components seen in the earlier test records. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyre condition. The January 2024 test at 38,189 miles highlighted thin pads on both front and rear along with pitted and scored front discs, though these were likely replaced given the subsequent clean tests in 2025. Furthermore, the February 2025 test at 43,621 miles pointed out a nearside front tyre worn on the edge, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. Verify the current tyre set for even wear to ensure that the high-mileage period over the last year has not compromised the geometry of the front suspension.
