2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · KM67 GZC

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy condition, having passed its most recent MOT test in June 2025 at 46,361 miles with no recorded defects. This represents an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year. While earlier tests highlighted issues with wear and tear, the lack of faults in the latest inspection suggests that the current owner has addressed previous mechanical concerns flagged by the tester. The mileage profile is notably low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. There is a consistent usage pattern, with 10,000 miles covered between the 2022 and 2023 tests, and roughly 4,700 miles between 2024 and 2025. This low mileage generally reduces mechanical strain on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the likelihood that rubber-based parts may dry out or perish due to age rather than distance travelled. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the tyres and braking system as the history shows recurring issues in these areas. The 2024 test flagged front brake pads wearing thin and perishing rear tyres, while the 2023 record noted front tyres worn to the legal limit. Although the 2025 test was clean, the low annual mileage often leads to sidewall cracking on older tyres which may not show in tread depth. Check for uneven wear on the tyres, as the previous edge wear in 2023 indicates a potential alignment issue or suspension bushing fatigue that requires monitoring.
