2022 Nissan Qashqai Acenta Prem DIG-T Mhev 1.3L Hybrid electric (clean) · LT22 AEU

The vehicle demonstrates stable roadworthiness with no defects recorded in its most recent 2026-03-19 MOT at 10,305 miles. The prior 2025-07-01 test at 8,355 miles also showed no issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical concerns. Both tests confirm compliance with safety standards, though the limited data span of 18 months restricts assessment of long-term trends. No advisories or critical faults were flagged, suggesting the car has been well-maintained within the observed period. The recorded mileage of 10,305 miles at four years old equates to approximately 2,576 miles annually, significantly below the average for this age group. The 1,950-mile increase between 2025-07-01 and 2026-03-19 occurred over 10 months, reflecting minimal usage. This low mileage may indicate infrequent operation or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs through lack of regular stress. The absence of corrosion, structural issues, or drivetrain faults in the MOT records is reassuring but does not fully account for potential hidden degradation from inactivity. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for signs of dry rot in rubber components, such as brake hoses or suspension bushings, and check the battery’s condition, as low usage can lead to reduced charge retention. Visual checks of the exhaust system and underbody corrosion are advisable, given the lack of frequent driving. While the MOT history shows no critical failures, the sparse data means further scrutiny of service records and a pre-purchase inspection are recommended to confirm the car’s mechanical state beyond the recorded tests.
