2013 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · LP62 BYT

This Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean record of recent inspections. The most recent test on 4 March 2026 at 176,051 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to February 2023, indicating that the vehicle is currently maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements. The vehicle has covered 176,051 miles over 13 years, averaging roughly 13,542 miles annually. This is high usage for this model, but the mileage accumulation is steady. Between February 2023 and March 2026, the odometer rose from 162,079 to 176,051 miles, showing a consistent driving pattern of approximately 4,000 to 7,000 miles per year in the most recent period. A brief failure on 21 February 2024 was resolved within a week, resulting in a pass on 28 February 2024. Despite the absence of MOT advisories, the high mileage necessitates a focused physical inspection of wear-and-tear components. A buyer should specifically check the condition of the suspension bushes, coil springs, and shock absorbers, as these often degrade under high-mileage stress without necessarily triggering an immediate MOT failure. The brake discs and pads should be measured for remaining thickness to ensure they are not nearing the end of their service life. Given the age and mileage, checking for structural corrosion on the underbody and sills is essential. While the DVSA records show no structural failures, high-mileage vehicles often hide surface rust that can progress into structural integrity issues. A manual check of the engine oil condition and a review of the service history for timing belt or chain replacements will confirm if the mechanical upkeep has matched the clean MOT record.
