2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · DT65 OXU

The 2016 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 4 March 2026 at 110,989 miles passed with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass dated 4 February 2025 at 103,539 miles confirms the vehicle entered its tenth year free of flagged mechanical or structural concerns. Annual mileage sits at roughly 11,100 miles, typical for a decade-old vehicle. The records show steady accumulation: 81,787 miles in January 2023, 88,950 miles in February 2024, then 103,539 miles by February 2025 and 110,989 miles by March 2026. The sparse five-entry history carries no advisories, which suggests either disciplined upkeep or limited testing depth, though the February 2025 entry lists both a fail and pass on the same day at identical mileage with no defects cited, implying an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc wear given the mileage, as these components accumulate fatigue without always triggering MOT advisories. The absence of corrosion or exhaust emission flags across the record is favourable, but structural integrity beneath sills and subframes warrants physical checks for hidden rust. Given the clean trajectory and ordinary use, the Qashqai shows no evidence of neglected consumables or recurring defects. Verify service history against the 103,539 and 110,989-mile points to confirm fluids, timing chain, and tyre rotations were addressed outside the MOT scope.
