2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · FH16 LFX

The 2016 Nissan Qashqai presents a clean roadworthiness status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 October 2024 at 30,712 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and this follows three prior consecutive passes with no advisories. The vehicle shows no worsening faults, recurring mechanical concerns, or structural warnings across the available history. Recorded mileage sits at 30,712 miles over roughly ten years, equating to about 3,071 miles per year. The DVSA entries confirm light use: 24,630 miles at the 29 September 2021 test, 27,250 miles in September 2022, 29,551 miles in October 2023, and 30,712 miles in October 2024. Annual accumulation stayed near 2,000 to 1,200 miles, with no gaps or sudden jumps. The sparse, clean record gives no evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs. A buyer should still arrange a physical inspection despite the unbroken pass record. Low mileage and long standing periods can allow brake calipers to seize, tyres to crack through age rather than wear, and suspension bushes to harden. The tester raised no corrosion or exhaust emission faults, yet structural integrity beneath sills and subframes warrants visual checks for moisture trapped during idle storage. Given the clean MOT trail, previous owners appear to have kept basic upkeep current. The absence of advisories on tyres, wipers, or brake discs suggests consumables were replaced before each test. Verify service history to confirm fluid changes, as MOT passes alone do not evidence engine or gearbox maintenance on a low-use vehicle.
