2012 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · CV61 PMX

The Nissan Qashqai passed its most recent MOT on 18 March 2026 at 120,969 miles with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend appears stable with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged across the available history. The vehicle is currently roadworthy per the official record, though two earlier failures in consecutive years raise a minor administrative flag rather than a mechanical one. Recorded mileage shows typical use for a 2012 vehicle, rising from 115,247 miles at the 6 March 2024 test to 120,328 miles by 28 March 2025, then 120,969 miles by March 2026. Annual accumulation sits near 5,600 miles over that span, below the lifetime average of roughly 8,600 miles per year, suggesting lighter recent use. The clean record with no advisories across all five entries indicates sparse but consistent testing rather than deferred maintenance. The March 2025 and March 2026 failures at 120,323 and 120,952 miles respectively listed no defects, implying the vehicle was presented without a valid certificate or failed on documentation rather than on tested components. Previous owners kept the suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, and exhaust emissions within limits, with no corrosion or structural integrity issues raised by any tester. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of the underbody for structural rust and check the condition of consumable items such as tyres and wiper blades, as the MOT record does not capture wear below test thresholds. Verify the reason for the two zero-defect failures with DVSA before purchase, since the pattern suggests administrative oversight rather than mechanical neglect.
