2017 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · J5 WLJ

The 2017 Nissan Qashqai presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 12 August 2025 at 44,624 miles passed with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken run of clean MOT results across five consecutive annual examinations. The odometer shows remarkably low use for a nine-year-old vehicle. Annual increments stayed tight: 28,178 miles in July 2021, 32,416 in August 2022, 35,652 in August 2023, 39,181 in August 2024, and 44,624 in August 2025. That averages roughly 4,100 miles per year, well below typical fleet or private-use norms. The DVSA data carries no gaps, advisories, or failures, so the record itself gives no warning of deferred consumable replacement or hidden corrosion. A clean MOT sheet does not certify component health beneath the test threshold. Low mileage paired with likely long stationary periods raises the risk of perished rubber suspension bushes, seized brake calipers, and flat-spotted tyres that a pass test would not flag. The buyer should physically inspect underbody structural integrity for rust, confirm brake disc condition after standing, and verify the age of tyres and wiper blades before purchase. Given the sparse but fault-free history, the prior owner appears to have kept the car lightly used and presented it for timely annual testing. No recurring mechanical faults emerge from the record to suggest worsening wear, though an independent pre-sale inspection remains prudent on a low-mileage example of this age.
