2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · DA14 VHT

The 2014 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 20 November 2025 at 135,780 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests also returned clean passes. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the five-year DVSA history, indicating the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that clears the MOT threshold without recurring concerns. Annual mileage sits at roughly 11,315 miles, typical for a twelve-year-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 103,106 miles at the January 2023 test, 116,878 at the January 2024 pass, 124,693 by December 2024, and 135,780 by November 2025. A failed test on 17 January 2024 at 116,862 miles was followed one day later by a pass at 116,878 miles with no defects listed on either entry, suggesting an administrative or minor pre-check rejection rather than a substantive mechanical fault. The clean run since implies no neglected consumables or skipped basic upkeep. Given the absence of flagged defects across suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion, the buyer should still commission an independent inspection of those components. At 135,780 miles the original dampers, binding calipers risk, and subframe rust exposure warrant physical checks the MOT does not detail. The prior owner kept the test record clear, but a pass with no advisories does not confirm component life remaining on high-wear items.
