2011 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · LT61 SWU

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection in January 2026 at 122,464 miles passed with only a minor defect regarding an inoperative offside registration plate lamp. This follows a period of clean passes in 2023 and 2025, indicating that the primary mechanical and structural components have not triggered any failures during the annual testing process. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-used vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 8,100 miles per year. Between the January 2024 test at 111,156 miles and the January 2026 test at 122,464 miles, the car covered 11,308 miles. This suggests regular use rather than long periods of stationary time, which often helps prevent the degradation of seals and seized components. There are no sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest erratic driving patterns or gaps in recorded history. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the electrical system, as the record shows recurring bulb-related failures, specifically the offside front position lamp in early 2024 and the registration plate lamp in 2026. While these are minor consumable issues, they indicate a lack of proactive pre-test checks. Given the vehicle's age and high mileage, a thorough check of the structural integrity along the underside for corrosion and the condition of the suspension bushes is also necessary, as these are common points of wear for this model at this interval.
