2019 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · DP69 NMM

The vehicle currently maintains a positive roadworthiness status with an improving maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 14 July 2025 at 27,135 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that previous concerns have been addressed. This clean pass suggests that the current owner is proactive in maintaining the vehicle following the history of minor advisories. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,876 miles per year. There is a significant gap between the November 2022 test at 20,652 miles and the October 2024 test at 26,040 miles, during which only 5,388 miles were covered over two years. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long periods of inactivity can lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts and internal corrosion in braking systems. A buyer should specifically inspect the front-end suspension and tyres due to recurring issues noted in the history. The 2022 test flagged the nearside front tyre for cracking and perishing, while the 2024 test noted the same tyre was worn close to the legal limit and worn on the edge. These faults indicate a potential alignment issue or uneven wear pattern that should be verified to ensure it does not continue to cause premature failure of new tyres. Given the low annual usage and the age of the car, a physical check of the brake discs and calipers is necessary to rule out pitting or seized components from disuse. The record shows no structural corrosion, but it remains prudent to inspect the underbody for any surface rust that can accumulate when a vehicle sits stationary for extended periods.
