2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · DL18 ADX

This Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 23 May 2025 at 65,308 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to May 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a condition that meets minimum legal standards without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for an eight year old vehicle. Between May 2022 and May 2025, the odometer rose from 37,090 to 65,308 miles, averaging roughly 9,400 miles per year over that three year window. A slight anomaly appears in April 2024, where the vehicle failed a test at 57,136 miles before passing shortly after on 30 May 2024 at 59,429 miles. The lack of recorded defects for that failure is atypical and suggests a possible administrative error or a failure on a non-mechanical item not detailed in the summary. The absence of advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or tyre tread depth across multiple years is uncommon for a vehicle of this age. It implies a proactive approach to consumable replacement by the previous owner. While the record is clean, a buyer should still manually check for signs of oil leaks around the engine bay and inspect the condition of the brake pads, as the MOT only confirms they are functional, not that they have significant life remaining. Given the lack of structural or mechanical red flags in the DVSA data, the primary focus for a physical inspection should be on the service history. The MOT record confirms legal roadworthiness but does not verify if the engine oil and filters have been changed at the manufacturer's recommended intervals. Confirming these service stamps will determine if the mechanical health matches the clean MOT history.
