2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · CV18 URX

The 2018 Nissan Qashqai presents a clean roadworthiness status. The most recent test on 19 August 2025 at 39,051 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the full history is stable with no advisories or failures at any stage. Annual mileage sits well below typical norms for an eight-year-old vehicle. The record shows 10,918 miles at the February 2022 test, rising to 16,454 by February 2023, 21,005 by February 2024, 23,582 by September 2024, and 39,051 by August 2025. The jump of over 15,000 miles in the final eleven months follows four years of low use around 4,500 to 5,500 miles per year. Such a pattern suggests the car stood lightly used then entered higher service recently. The DVSA data itself is sparse and clean, with no flagged corrosion, suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions issues across any entry. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the age and the late mileage surge. The tester logged no binding calipers or worn coil springs, but standing periods can hide moisture damage not caught in a pass result. Check the condition of consumables like tyres and wiper blades that a clean sheet does not detail. Verify the sudden 2024 to 2025 accumulation against service records to confirm oil changes and drivetrain care kept pace. The history implies a previous owner who met statutory tests yet left gaps in routine use, so a qualified mechanic should assess suspension and brake wear before purchase.
