2017 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · G23 MAS

The vehicle demonstrates a stable roadworthiness profile, with no defects recorded in the most recent January 2026 MOT at 134,781 miles. The prior failure on 2026-01-05, just seven days earlier, recorded no defects, suggesting a technical anomaly or procedural error rather than a mechanical issue. Subsequent tests from 2023 to 2025 also showed no defects, indicating consistent maintenance. No recurring faults or escalating concerns are evident in the recorded history. The mileage of 134,781 miles over nine years equates to approximately 14,976 miles annually, exceeding average usage for this age. Notable gaps exist between tests, particularly the 7,801-mile increase between the 2025-01-06 test (126,980 miles) and the 2026-01-12 test. This rapid accumulation may indicate heightened usage, potentially accelerating wear on components like brake discs, suspension bushes, or exhaust systems. However, the absence of recorded defects suggests these elements have not yet failed. A buyer should prioritize an in-person inspection of the suspension system, focusing on coil springs and bushings, which may show wear from high mileage. Brake components, including calipers and discs, should be checked for uneven wear or corrosion. The exhaust system, particularly near the catalytic converter, warrants scrutiny for leaks or damage. While the MOT history shows no critical issues, the vehicle’s usage pattern necessitates thorough verification of these high-stress areas before purchase.
