2007 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Petrol · LS52 LES

The vehicle's current roadworthiness status appears stable following the most recent MOT pass on 3 March 2026 at 121,732 miles. The inspection record shows no defects or advisories, indicating that the previous issues identified in earlier tests have been addressed. While the vehicle failed two tests in 2024 and 2025, the most recent result suggests a resolving trend in maintenance compliance. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, moving from 116,864 miles in February 2024 to 121,732 miles in March 2026. This steady progression suggests the vehicle is driven regularly rather than sitting idle for long periods, which typically helps prevent issues like seized calipers or perished rubber components. The failure recorded on 24 February 2025 at 119,524 miles, followed by a pass two days later, suggests a minor rectification was carried out to meet minimum standards. Because the 2024 and 2025 failures occurred without specific defect descriptions in the summary, a buyer must verify that the underlying causes were properly resolved. You should physically inspect the vehicle for signs of suspension wear, specifically looking for perished bushes or leaking dampers, and check the underside for significant corrosion on the exhaust or chassis. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough inspection of the braking system is necessary. While the recent MOT was clean, you should check for unevenly worn brake discs or signs of binding calipers. It is also prudent to examine the condition of the tyre treads and the integrity of the wiper blades to ensure the vehicle has received consistent upkeep beyond the minimum requirements of the MOT test.
