2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · FP16 PXV

The 2016 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable and highly favourable maintenance trend, culminating in a completely clean MOT pass on 16 April 2025 at 47,006 miles. This most recent test recorded absolutely no defects or advisories, indicating the vehicle met all required safety and emissions standards without intervention. The consistent absence of flagged issues across the recorded history demonstrates a pattern of reliable mechanical condition rather than a worsening or resolving trend. Evaluating the mileage pattern relative to the vehicle's age reveals an unusually low annual accumulation of roughly 4,701 miles. Between 2022 and 2025, the yearly increments remained steady, rising from 26,825 miles to 47,006 miles. A notable anomaly exists in the current data, however; the odometer reading has remained static at 47,006 miles since the April 2025 test. The vehicle has evidently stood stationary for at least fifteen months, a prolonged period of inactivity that warrants specific mechanical scrutiny despite the clean test result. Despite the flawless MOT record, a prospective buyer must inspect the physical consequences of this prolonged stationary period. Tyres will likely exhibit flat-spotting or sidewall cracking from bearing the vehicle's weight in one position for over a year. Brake discs commonly surface-rust when left unused, leading to binding calipers or judder until the corrosion wears off. Suspension bushes and seals can perish from lack of movement and lubrication. Checking the exhaust system for internal condensation corrosion and verifying the structural integrity of the undercarriage for moisture-induced rust remains essential, as long-term standing often accelerates decay in these areas regardless of the low mileage.
