2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · FM64 RHA

The overall roadworthiness status of this 2015 Nissan Qashqai cannot be fully verified, as the most recent MOT test dates back to 15 December 2021 at 65,732 miles. On that date, the vehicle passed with no defects recorded, indicating a mechanically sound state at the time of testing. However, the maintenance trend is currently indeterminate due to the significant gap in testing. A failure recorded just four days earlier on 11 December 2021 at 65,647 miles shows no specific defects, suggesting an administrative or procedural issue rather than a mechanical breakdown, though the exact nature remains unclear from the record. The mileage pattern points to exceptionally low usage, averaging roughly 5,976 miles per year over the vehicle's eleven-year lifespan. The recorded mileage has remained static at 65,732 miles since the December 2021 pass, implying the vehicle has either stood idle for nearly five years or been driven without a valid MOT. Such prolonged inactivity often causes its own mechanical issues, including seized brake calipers, perished rubber suspension bushes, and degraded fluids, which the MOT record does not capture due to the lack of recent testing. A prospective buyer must treat this vehicle as unverified for the road since late 2021. A thorough physical inspection should prioritize components susceptible to deterioration from standing. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion and the calipers for binding, as stationary vehicles frequently suffer from seized pistons. Inspect the tyres for flat spots and sidewall cracking, and examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for perishing. Engine oil, coolant, and brake fluid will likely require immediate replacement due to moisture ingress from prolonged inactivity. The structural integrity of the underbody and exhaust system also warrants close scrutiny for corrosion that may have developed unchecked over the last five years.
