2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · DG65 XRT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy having passed its most recent MOT in mid-September 2025 at 66,241 miles. The maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive repairs where faults are addressed only after inspection failure. While the September 2025 test failed due to a nearside track rod end with excessive play and a damaged windscreen, the subsequent pass twenty-four hours later indicates the owner addressed immediate safety-critical steering components and glass damage. At 66,241 miles over eleven years, the Qashqai averages approximately 6,000 miles per annum, which aligns with low-to-average usage patterns. The data shows consistent annual mileage progression, with roughly 6,400 miles covered between October 2023 and October 2024, and another 6,700 miles in the following year. This steady usage profile suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to extreme mechanical stress, though low mileage often leads to rubber components and brake hardware deforming rather than wearing. A buyer should inspect the front suspension geometry closely, as the record reveals recurring issues with ball joints. The tester flagged offside front track rod ends in 2024 and nearside track rod ends in 2025, suggesting a potential vulnerability to wear in the steering links or a lack of proactive replacement during services. Additionally, the braking system shows a persistent trend of thin rear pads and pitted discs across both 2023 and 2024. While these were noted as advisories or minor failures, the recurring nature indicates the owner waits until components reach the absolute limit before replacement, necessitating a thorough physical check of current pad thickness and disc surface condition.
