2011 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · LX61 RMV

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean testing record over the last several years. The most recent MOT conducted in November 2022 at 97,307 miles passed with no defects or advisories, indicating that the vehicle met all minimum safety standards at that time. This follows a period of consistent passes since 2019, suggesting that the previous owners maintained the mechanical and structural integrity components effectively. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle, averaging approximately 6,500 miles per year. Between November 2019 and November 2021, the car covered 4,654 miles annually, showing a steady and predictable rate of wear. There is a notable gap between November 2021 and November 2022 where the vehicle covered only 6,190 miles. This low annual mileage for a fifteen-year-old Nissan suggests the car may have sat stationary periodically or was used primarily for short distances, which can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals. Despite the clean history, a buyer must perform a physical inspection of the components most prone to age on this Qashqai. The record shows no recurring advisories for suspension bushes or brake calipers, but the low mileage increases the risk of seized brake sliders or perished suspension components due to lack of use. Check the underside for structural corrosion, particularly on the subframe and exhaust mounting, as these areas often suffer regardless of mileage. Since the last recorded test was over three years ago, the current MOT is expired, and a fresh inspection is mandatory to ensure no new faults have developed since the 2022 test.
