2013 Nissan Qashqai +2 N-Tec+ DCI 1.5L Diesel · IRZ 7672

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-02-27 at 141,911 miles showed no defects, indicating a stable roadworthiness status. However, a failure on 2024-11-20 at 135,967 miles—despite no recorded defects—suggests potential unresolved issues. Subsequent tests in 2024-12-07 and 2023-11-17 passed without issues, but the lack of defect details for the failure raises questions about the nature of the problem. The overall trend shows no worsening issues, though the 2024 failure warrants scrutiny to confirm if it was a technicality or a missed repair. Mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging ~10,916 miles annually. The 2023-11-17 test at 126,234 miles to 2024-11-20 at 135,967 miles reflects a 9,733-mile increase over 12 months, consistent with regular use. No significant gaps or rapid accumulation are evident, though the 2024-11-20 failure occurred just 17 days after the 2024-12-07 pass, suggesting possible oversight in addressing minor faults. The clean record post-2024-12-07 implies corrective action was taken, but the absence of defect details limits definitive conclusions. A buyer should inspect the suspension components, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, for wear given the vehicle’s age. The exhaust system and brake discs should also be checked for corrosion or uneven wear, as these are common issues in older diesel models. While no structural rust or major mechanical faults are documented, the 2024 failure—though unexplained—highlights the need for a thorough pre-purchase inspection to verify that all systems meet roadworthiness standards.
