2017 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · DL67 OTF

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 1 December 2025 at 74,538 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a consistent pattern of immediate failure followed by a pass on the same day. The lack of specific defect data recorded for the failures in 2024 and 2025 suggests the previous owner addressed identified issues immediately before a re-test rather than allowing mechanical faults to persist. The mileage progression is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,282 miles per year. Between the December 2023 test at 54,351 miles and the December 2024 test at 64,262 miles, the car covered 9,911 miles. The subsequent interval saw another 10,276 miles leading to the December 2025 test. This regular usage suggests typical operation, which generally reduces the risk of brake seizure or internal component corrosion often associated with long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components that caused the failures in 2024 and 2025, as the digital record does not specify the exact mechanical faults. Given the age and mileage of this Qashqai, close attention to the suspension bushes and coil springs is necessary, as these are common wear points on this model. Inspect the brake discs for thinning or uneven wear and check the underbody for structural corrosion to ensure the integrity of the chassis remains sound despite the recurring testing failures.
