2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · KS64 ANR

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2023-01-20 at 86,391 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but the same date shows a failure entry with no recorded issues, indicating potential administrative inconsistency. Previous tests in 2022 and 2021 at 71,099 and 51,959 miles respectively also passed without defects. The lack of recurring mechanical faults in the records suggests a stable maintenance trend, though the 2023 failure entry raises questions about the reliability of the data. No structural corrosion, brake system issues, or suspension component failures were noted in the history, which is reassuring. The vehicle’s mileage of 86,391 miles over 11 years aligns with average annual usage of 7,854 miles. The MOT tests are spaced irregularly, with a 12-month gap between 2021 and 2022, and a 13-month gap between 2022 and 2023. The absence of defects in the last three tests implies consistent upkeep, but the long interval since the 2023 MOT means the current condition remains unverified. No significant wear patterns, such as excessive tyre tread loss or exhaust emissions issues, were flagged, suggesting the previous owner prioritized basic maintenance. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade over time without visible MOT failures. The brake discs and calipers should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as these can develop gradually. Structural integrity should also be assessed, particularly around the chassis and body mounts, to rule out hidden corrosion. While the MOT history shows no critical issues, the lack of recent testing and the 2023 failure entry warrant a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm the vehicle’s roadworthiness.
