2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · EU16 DKD

The vehicle currently presents a stable roadworthiness status, following a clean pass in April 2026 at 107,485 miles. This recent result shows a clear improvement trend, as the car moved from a history of failures to a state with no recorded defects or advisories. The lack of advisories in the most recent test suggests that the previous owner addressed necessary mechanical or safety repairs to bring the car up to passing standards. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical annual usage for this age, averaging approximately 10,700 miles per annum. A significant interval of 12,619 miles was covered between April 2024 and April 2025, followed by a more modest increase of 3,059 miles between April 2025 and 2026. This steady accumulation indicates regular road miles rather than long periods of standing, which is generally beneficial for maintaining the integrity of rubber components and braking seals. While the latest test is flawless, the buyer must investigate the specific mechanical faults that caused the failures in 2024 and 2025. Since the provided record does not detail the exact reasons for those previous failures, a physical inspection is required to determine if the issues were related to suspension wear, emissions components, or structural corrosion. Given the mileage of over 100,000 miles, close attention should be paid to the condition of the bushes, coil springs, and the presence of surface rust on the chassis to ensure no underlying structural issues are developing.
