2019 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · EU19 SYG

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT on 26 May 2026 at 56,587 miles, but the test flagged three active advisories: a slightly damaged nearside front tyre, cracking or perishing on both rear tyres, and rear brake pads wearing thin. This indicates a clear deterioration in maintenance condition compared to previous tests, where only minor tyre concerns were noted in earlier years. The trend is worsening, not improving, with brake and tyre issues now appearing simultaneously across multiple components. The recorded mileage of 56,587 over seven years equates to an average of 8,084 miles annually, which is typical for a family vehicle. There are no gaps in the MOT history, and the progression from 20,470 miles in 2022 to 56,587 in 2026 shows consistent annual use without sudden spikes or long periods of inactivity. The absence of defects in the 2023 and 2022 tests suggests the car was well-maintained early in its life, but the recent pattern reveals a decline in upkeep over the last two years. A buyer must inspect the rear tyres closely for structural cracking or sidewall damage, as repeated advisories on both rears indicate possible age-related rubber degradation or underinflation. The rear brake pads are already thin and will require replacement soon; check for uneven wear or binding calipers that could accelerate pad consumption. The front tyres, previously flagged for edge wear in 2025, should be examined for alignment issues or worn suspension components. While no structural corrosion or exhaust emissions failures have ever been recorded, the recurring tyre and brake advisories suggest basic maintenance has been deferred, and a full suspension and brake system check is essential before purchase.
