2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · DA63 VSN

The 2014 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 June 2025 at 116,315 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three prior annual tests from 2022 to 2024 also passed clean. The only anomaly is a failed test logged on 15 June 2023 at 89,496 miles with no defects recorded, immediately followed by a pass on the same day at the same mileage, indicating an administrative or procedural rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 9,700 miles per year. The record shows 75,560 miles at the 16 June 2022 test, rising to 89,496 by 15 June 2023, then 103,188 by 11 June 2024, and 116,315 by 11 June 2025. Annual increments of around 13,000 to 14,000 miles reflect consistent use with no standing periods or sudden accumulation spikes. The DVSA data is sparse on advisories, showing no flagged wear on tyres, brakes, suspension bushes, or corrosion across the five entries. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection despite the clean sheet. Twelve years of service and 116,315 miles will have loaded consumable items not captured by pass-only MOTs. Examine brake disc thickness, coil spring condition, and subframe corrosion, as these degrade without triggering advisories until failure. The 2023 same-day fail-pass pair warrants a check of the DVSA failure reason code to confirm no suppressed defect. Previous owners appear to have maintained the vehicle to test standard with no skipped years. Absence of recurring advisories suggests basic upkeep was not neglected, though the lack of flagged wear means components are aged rather than verified sound. Treat the Qashqai as mechanically honest on paper, subject to confirmation of underside and drivetrain condition at point of sale.
