2012 Volkswagen Transporter 2.0L Diesel · KT10 ADS

This Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of passes since May 2023. The most recent test on 24 April 2025 at 107,043 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the vehicle failed its tests on 23 April 2025 and 1 May 2024, the lack of recorded defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues rectified instantly during the same visit. The mileage pattern is consistent with the age of the vehicle. It covered 9,097 miles between May 2023 and May 2024, and a further 9,097 miles between May 2024 and April 2025. This steady accumulation of roughly 6,690 miles per year indicates regular use rather than long periods of standing, which generally helps maintain engine health and prevents seals from perishing. The absence of advisories across the last three years is unusual for a sixteen year old vehicle. No mentions of corrosion, worn suspension bushes, or thinning brake discs appear in the data. This suggests either a very high standard of preventative maintenance or a lenient testing regime. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common age related wear that the MOT record has failed to flag. Specifically, check for structural corrosion on the sills and rear subframe, and inspect the condition of the coil springs for hairline fractures. Given the mileage, a manual check of the gearbox transition and the condition of the brake pads is recommended to ensure the lack of recorded defects reflects the actual mechanical state.
