Our Verdict
This 2015 Nissan Qashqai presents with a
When inspecting this Qashqai, verify that the suspension components noted in the 2023 MOT record—specifically the front lower suspension arm bushes—have been monitored or replaced since. Given that tyres have been a recurring theme across multiple tests (including failures and advisories for tread depth and cracking), check the current condition and age of all four tyres closely. Ensure that any accompanying service paperwork correlates with the low recorded mileage.
Equipped with an 1197cc petrol engine, this Qashqai sits in a moderate insurance group and offers reasonable fuel economy for a family crossover. Annual Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) will align with standard petrol rates for vehicles registered after April 2017 or matching the 2015 bandings. Routine maintenance should remain straightforward given the widespread availability of parts, though consumable items like tyres and suspension bushes will require periodic attention.
Pay close attention to the suspension system, specifically checking the front lower suspension arms for play, following the advisory noted in September 2023. Inspect all four tyre sidewalls and tread depths carefully, noting the historical occurrences of cracking and tread wear flagged in previous tests. Additionally, check the operation of all headlamps and braking components, which mirror the top MOT failure reasons for this model nationally.
First registered in December 2015, this red 1.2-litre petrol Nissan Qashqai has recorded 38,834 miles by its September 2025 MOT test. Its MOT history shows a clean pass in 2025 with minor tyre advisories, a failure for worn front tyres in 2024 that was swiftly rectified, and an advisory-laden pass in 2023 covering suspension bushes and tyre perishing. Overall, the record reflects standard consumable wear rather than deep-seated mechanical faults.
The Nissan Qashqai has an aggregate MOT pass rate of 79.5% across hundreds of thousands of tested vehicles, with tyres, headlamps, and brake pads forming the most common failure reasons.
