2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Diesel · FG68 VLN

The 2018 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 25 June 2025 at 58,885 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the prior clean pass on 22 May 2025 at 58,193 miles confirms the vehicle entered its latest test cycle in sound condition. The single failure on 21 May 2025 at 58,192 miles carries no recorded defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at the testing station rather than a mechanical fault, with the owner securing a pass one day later. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,361 miles, typical for an eight-year-old vehicle. The records show 39,019 miles in May 2023, rising to 49,688 miles by May 2024 and 58,885 miles by June 2025, a consistent 9,000 to 10,000 miles per year with no standing gaps or abrupt accumulation. The clean sheet across every presented test suggests previous owners kept basic consumable and structural upkeep current, though the sparse five-entry history limits deeper trend analysis on wear items such as suspension bushes or brake discs. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion given the Qashqai's age and the record's silence on those areas. Examine brake calipers and discs for binding or uneven wear, and check coil springs and suspension arms for fatigue not yet flagged by testers. Verify the May 2025 failure with no defects was purely procedural and not a掩盖 of an unresolved advisory. The absence of advisories across all tests is a positive signal but not a substitute for hands-on checks. Focus on tyre tread depth, exhaust emissions under load, and steering joint play before purchase.
