2017 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · EY67 BJK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive rather than proactive approach to servicing. The most recent test on 1 July 2025 at 47,658 miles passed only after an initial failure due to rear brake pads being below the 1.5mm threshold. This indicates that the owner only addresses mechanical components once they reach a legal failure point, a trend that is consistent across the recorded history. At nine years old with 47,658 recorded miles, this Qashqai reflects a low average usage of approximately 5,300 miles per year. There is a significant data gap between the May 2022 and June 2023 tests, during which the vehicle covered roughly 9,300 miles. While the low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it can lead to degradation of rubber components. This is evidenced by the May 2022 advisories regarding cracking and perishing on both the offside front and nearside rear tyres. A buyer must perform a close inspection of the braking system, as the record shows recurring issues with pads and scored discs across 2022, 2023, and 2025. The repeated failure of brake pads suggests the calipers may be sticking or poorly maintained, causing uneven wear. Given the low mileage and the previous reports of perished rubber, the buyer should also check the sidewalls for dry rot and inspect the suspension bushes for cracking, which often occurs on vehicles that sit stationary for long periods.
