2013 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · FG63 CKA

The 2013 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy following its most recent test on 25 February 2026 at 74,419 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend is stable. The vehicle passed cleanly after two prior failed attempts in February 2026 and February 2025 that also listed no defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than mechanical faults. No advisories or recorded wear points appear across the five-year visible history. The recorded mileage sits at 74,419 miles against a 13-year lifespan, averaging roughly 5,725 miles per year. This is low for the age. The odometer moved only 1,398 miles between the March 2024 test at 69,977 miles and the February 2025 failure at 73,018 miles, then crept up just 1,396 miles to the February 2026 pass. Such limited annual use suggests prolonged standing periods, which can accelerate rubber perishing, brake seizing, and underbody corrosion even where the record shows clean results. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers given the low-use profile and the unexplained February failures. The DVSA data shows no structural integrity concerns, exhaust emission breaches, or tyre defects. The repeated zero-defect failures without stated reason imply the previous owner addressed whatever halted the test promptly, but the absence of advisories means worn consumables may simply be undocumented. Given the clean trailing record and stable low mileage, the Qashqai shows no worsening mechanical trend. Verify in person that brake discs are free of rust pitting and that no hidden corrosion affects subframes, as static storage rarely surfaces in MOT entries until advanced.
