2023 Nissan Qashqai Nconncta Digt Mhev CVT 1.3L Hybrid electric (clean) · LT23 CXZ

A spotless MOT record to date indicates that the 2023 Nissan Qashqai has not been recorded with any measurable defects, and the successful pass on 24 August 2026 reinforces a pattern of roadworthiness that, so far, has been stable. With no advisories or failures logged, the vehicle has presented no issues that required remedial action at its sole test. At roughly 44 000 miles after just over three years of age, the annual accumulation averages around 14‑15 000 miles, which is considerably above the typical UK usage of 8‑10 000 miles per year. This higher mileage suggests accelerated wear on consumable components such as brake pads, discs, tyre tread, and the CVT’s hydraulic system, even though the MOT has not flagged any of these items. There are no gaps in the testing chronology, so the mileage progression appears continuous rather than punctuated by prolonged storage periods. When you inspect the car, pay particular attention to the braking system: feel for any pedal pulsation, increased travel, or a softening sensation that could indicate pad wear or disc glazing. Listen for squeal or grinding noises that might betray worn shoes or discs, and check that the handbrake holds firmly without excessive pull. On the suspension front, drive over a series of bumps and note any clunking, excessive bounce, or uneven tyre noise that could reveal deteriorating bushes, worn shock absorbers, or loosened mounting points, especially given the higher mileage load. Finally, evaluate the CVT’s behaviour by observing the acceleration response during a gentle and a more aggressive throttle application; the gearbox should shift smoothly without judder, hesitation, or a noticeable lag. Inspect the under‑body for any fresh oil stains that could hint at a developing leak in the transmission or engine seals, and verify that the exhaust is free of excessive smoke or rattles. An independent mechanical inspection focusing on these high‑wear areas will give you a clearer picture of any imminent maintenance that the MOT record alone cannot reveal.
