2020 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · FG70 HGY

The 2020 Nissan QASHQAI presents a stable and consistently clean maintenance trend across its entire MOT history. The most recent test, conducted on 1 October 2025 at 51,709 miles, passed with zero defects recorded. This follows two identical clean passes on 4 October 2024 at 40,507 miles and 27 September 2023 at 27,526 miles. The absence of any advisories or failures across all three recorded tests indicates a resolving trend, or more accurately, a vehicle that has required no corrective intervention throughout its MOT life. The mileage accumulation pattern is remarkably linear and typical for a vehicle of this age. Between the September 2023 test and the October 2024 test, the vehicle covered approximately 12,981 miles over thirteen months. The subsequent interval from October 2024 to October 2025 shows 11,202 miles added over twelve months. This equates to roughly 8,600 miles per year, consistent with the stated annual average. There are no suspicious gaps in the MOT record that would suggest long periods of non-use or a rolled-back odometer. The annual test intervals are regular, and the mileage progression is smooth and believable. Despite the clean MOT record, a buyer should still conduct a thorough physical inspection. The QASHQAI is a crossover prone to certain age-related issues that may not yet have triggered a test failure. Inspect the front and rear suspension bushes and drop links for any play or deterioration, as these components commonly wear on vehicles with this mileage. Check the condition of the brake discs and pads, particularly the rear setup, as binding calipers and uneven disc wear are frequent on this model. Examine the underbody and wheel arches for any signs of corrosion, especially around the subframe and suspension mounting points, as structural rust can develop even on well-maintained vehicles in the UK climate. The clean MOT history is a strong positive indicator, but it does not guarantee the absence of latent faults. A pre-purchase inspection by a qualified mechanic is advisable to verify the condition of consumable items like tyres and wiper blades, and to assess the exhaust system for any early signs of corrosion or emissions degradation. The vehicle appears to have been well cared for, but physical verification remains essential before committing to a purchase.
