2010 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Petrol · LO10 EFW

The 2010 Nissan Qashqai presents a currently roadworthy status following its most recent test on 2 April 2025 at 121,006 miles, where the tester recorded no defects. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, with the vehicle passing its last examination cleanly and showing no recurring advisories or mechanical faults in the supplied records. Prior to this, the tests in April 2024 and April 2023 each show a fail and pass on the same date at identical mileages of 99,874 and 91,987 respectively, yet no defects were logged on either occasion, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the testing station rather than genuine mechanical concerns. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a sixteen-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 7,563 miles per year against the 121,006 miles recorded. The jump from 91,987 miles on 12 April 2023 to 99,874 miles on 5 April 2024 represents under 8,000 miles in that year, then a larger rise of 21,132 miles by 2 April 2025. This later period shows above-average use for the vehicle's norm, though the annual figure remains moderate and consistent with private motoring rather than high-stress commercial duty. The sparse record with clean outcomes gives little evidence of neglected consumables or deferred repairs across the observed span. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points beneath the sills, subframes, and suspension mounting areas, as a vehicle of this age and mileage commonly develops rust unseen by MOT checks until advanced. The tester noted no advisories on brake discs, calipers, or suspension bushes, but at 121,006 miles the original dampers, coil springs, and exhaust system are likely nearing end of service life and warrant hands-on assessment. Given the same-day fail-and-pass entries in 2023 and 2024 with zero defects cited, the previous owner maintained the car to a standard sufficient for clean certificates, yet the duplicated records suggest lapsed or rebooked tests rather than rigorous pre-emptive care. Verify the V5C and service book against the odometer to confirm the 2025 reading is genuine and not a clerical mismatch before purchase.
