2012 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · GY12 VMA

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, showing a stable maintenance trend despite a recent minor mechanical failure. The most recent test in July 2025 at 123,886 miles resulted a failure for an excessively worn offside front anti-roll bar linkage and condensation in the offside rear light unit. These issues were rectified immediately, as the vehicle passed the following day, indicating the owner is responsive to safety-critical defects rather than allowing faults to persist across testing cycles. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 14-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,850 miles per year. Data shows steady accumulation between 2022 and 2025, with the car covering 11,664 miles between the June 2022 and 2023 tests, and another 11,367 miles in the following year. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not suffered from prolonged neglect, which helps prevent the internal corrosion and brake caliper seizing often associated with long periods of standing. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the front suspension components, as the failure of the anti-roll bar linkage indicates the beginning wear of rubber bushes and ball joints. Given the mileage has surpassed 120,000 miles, the control arm bushings and shock absorbers should be checked for play or leaks. The previously noted condensation in the rear light unit should be monitored to ensure that moisture ingress has not led to electrical Faults or corrosion in the surrounding wiring loom.
