Our Verdict

This 2013 Nissan Qashqai requires carefu

When inspecting this Qashqai, examine the recent MOT history closely alongside any available service documentation to understand how consistently components have been replaced. Negotiate on the price to reflect the likelihood of near-future suspension and steering component replacements, given the wear noted in recent testing cycles. Verify that the parking brake holds securely on a gradient, as braking efficiency and lever adjustment have previously required attention.

Operating a 2013 1.6-litre petrol Nissan Qashqai with over 163,000 miles involves factoring in higher-than-average maintenance outlays alongside standard fuel and road tax expenses. Insurance groups for this generation of Qashqai are generally moderate, but high mileage may influence policy premiums. Budget prudently for frequent checks on wear-and-tear items such as tyres, suspension bushes, and steering ball joints.

Pay close attention to the front suspension and steering assemblies, checking for play in the track rod ends and deterioration on ball joint dust covers, which have been flagged in previous MOT tests. Inspect the drive shaft CV boots for splits or grease leaks, as an offside front boot failure was recorded during the October 2025 failure. Additionally, inspect all four tyres for cracking, perishing, and tread depth across the shoulders, and test the parking brake travel and holding efficiency thoroughly.

First registered in April 2013, this black Nissan Qashqai features a 1.598cc petrol engine and has accumulated 163,386 miles as of its October 2025 MOT test. Its MOT history shows recurring issues with tyres, suspension components, steering joints, and the parking brake system across both 2024 and 2025 examinations. While the vehicle passed its most recent test in October 2025 following corrective action, the volume of past defects indicates significant mechanical wear consistent with high-mileage motoring.

The Nissan Qashqai model demonstrates an aggregate MOT pass rate of 79.3%, with headlamps, tyres, and ball joints forming the top categories of failure across the fleet.
