2010 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · CY60 FSP

The 2010 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable, clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent test on 25 April 2025 at 50,727 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken pass sequence back to January 2022. The maintenance trend shows no worsening faults, advisories, or recurring mechanical concerns across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 50,727 against a 16-year-old vehicle, equating to roughly 3,170 miles per year. The DVSA data shows gentle, consistent accumulation: 35,783 miles in January 2022, 40,292 by January 2023, 43,800 in January 2024, 48,697 in January 2025, and 50,727 by April 2025. No gaps or sudden jumps appear. The clean record with no advisories across five consecutive passes suggests the previous keeper maintained basic statutory compliance, though the low annual use means the car likely stood idle for extended periods. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and subframe corrosion, as standing vehicles suffer moisture-related structural degradation not always visible at an MOT. Brake discs and calipers may have surface pitting from disuse; the tester logged no binding or imbalance, but low-mileage cars often hide sticky handbrake mechanisms. Check the exhaust system and underbody for rust, and verify cambelt interval history if the engine variant requires it. The MOT record alone shows no red flags, yet sparse annual testing on a lightly used Qashqai warrants a independent mechanical assessment before purchase.
