2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · DA16 WVD

The 2016 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 28 May 2025 at 62,996 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 5 June 2024 at 61,150 miles confirms no advisories or escalating faults across the last two cycles. Recorded mileage sits at 62,996 against a ten-year-old vehicle, equating to roughly 6,300 miles per year and reflecting typical use for the age. The gap between the 25 May 2023 test at 55,124 miles and the June 2024 pass at 61,150 miles shows about 6,000 miles covered in thirteen months. The two failed entries on 4 June 2024 at 61,148 miles and 25 May 2023 at 55,124 miles list no defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical rejection. The absence of any recorded advisories across all five tests suggests the previous owner kept basic consumables and structural items within limits, though a clean sheet provides no insight into worn suspension bushes, corroding subframes, or fatigued coil springs that a tester might omit. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of brake discs, underbody corrosion, and steering joints given the Qashqai's known susceptibility to rear suspension and sill rust by this mileage. Given the low annual coverage and two same-day fail-pass anomalies, the car may have stood idle for periods, raising the risk of seized calipers or flat-spotted tyres not captured by the MOT. Verify service history and check for fluid degradation before purchase.
