2020 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · DE70 LPC

This Nissan Qashqai has maintained a consistently clean MOT history with no defects or advisories recorded across five consecutive tests, most recently passing on 2 September 2025 at just 19,236 miles. The absence of any failures or even minor advisories suggests the vehicle has undergone regular, competent servicing and has not experienced any recurring mechanical issues that would warrant repeated MOT failures. The most recent test, just under a year ago, confirms the vehicle remains structurally sound and mechanically compliant with current UK roadworthiness standards. The recorded mileage of 19,236 miles over six years—approximately 3,206 miles annually—indicates unusually low usage for a vehicle of this age. The largest gap between tests occurred between May 2024 (12,161 miles) and September 2023 (10,156 miles), a span of 11 months with only 2,005 miles accumulated. This prolonged period of low activity could imply extended periods of storage, which may have contributed to minor wear such as tyre degradation or suspension stiffness if not properly maintained. Conversely, the consistent passing of MOTs without advisories suggests no major neglect during these intervals. Given the clean MOT record, a prospective buyer should prioritise a thorough inspection of components that are particularly vulnerable to low-mileage wear or prolonged storage. The suspension system—particularly coil springs, bushes, and dampers—should be checked for stiffness or uneven wear, as these can degrade even with minimal movement. Brake discs and calipers, while not flagged in past tests, warrant inspection for binding or uneven wear, especially if the vehicle has been stationary for extended periods. Additionally, the underbody should be examined for corrosion, particularly around wheel arches and sills, as rust can develop even with low mileage if the vehicle was exposed to moisture or poor storage conditions. Finally, the battery and fluid levels (brake, coolant, and power steering) should be verified, as these are often overlooked in lightly used vehicles.
