2007 Nissan Qashqai 2.0L Petrol · HD07 AUN

The vehicle currently holds a valid roadworthiness status following a pass on April 1, 2024. However, the maintenance history reveals a pattern of inconsistent compliance, with the vehicle failing the test immediately prior to passing in both 2023 and 2024. While the most recent record shows no active defects, the recurring nature of these failures suggests that mechanical issues are only addressed when necessary to pass the annual test rather than being managed as part of a proactive preventative maintenance schedule. At 133,095 miles, this nineteen-year-old Qashqai averages approximately 7,000 miles per year. This figure is consistent with average annual usage for a vehicle of this age, though the sparse data between March 2022 and April 2024 does not provide a granular breakdown of mileage accumulation during that two-year interval. The lack of specific mileage figures for the failed tests makes it difficult to determine the exact rate of wear on the drivetrain or suspension components during the periods where the vehicle failed inspection. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components most likely to cause the failures seen in the recent history. Given the age and mileage, a thorough check of the structural integrity is required, specifically looking for corrosion on the sills and subframe points. The suspension should be examined for perished rubber bushes and worn coil springs, while the braking system requires an evaluation for binding calipers or thin discs, as these are common points of failure on this model that age. Buying score: 58 Risk level: Medium.
