2019 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · FN19 NSE

The vehicle presents a high standard of roadworthiness, evidenced by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent inspection conducted on 5 March 2026 at 22,742 miles resulted in no defects or advisories, maintaining a stable maintenance trend over the last five years. This continuity suggests that the mechanical and structural components have remained within acceptable operating parameters without triggering failures during annual testing. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,250 miles per annum. Between the March 2022 test at 10,241 miles and the March 2026 test at 22,742 miles, the car covered only 12,501 miles. This low usage indicates light travel, which typically reduces wear on the engine, engine, clutch, and suspension bushings. However, such low mileage can sometimes lead to secondary issues like flat-spotting tyres or degradation of rubber seals if the vehicle sat stationary for extended periods. While the MOT record shows no faults, a buyer should perform a physical inspection of components sensitive to low-mileage use. Check the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, which often occurs when a car is not driven frequently enough to clear the rotors. Examine the tyres for age-related cracking or sidewalling, as rubber hardens long before the tread depth is exhausted. Given the lack of recorded advisories, the focus should remain on verifying the service history to ensure oil changes were performed annually regardless of the low mileage.
