Our Verdict
A viable purchase with a consistent MOT
Your primary focus should be the most recent MOT from July 2026, which flagged a worn offside front suspension arm bush and play in the track rod end. Confirm whether these have been replaced, as these components are known weak points for this model. Additionally, check for evidence that the brake pads and discs, which were noted as worn or pitted in 2025, have been renewed.
Request the full service history to see if the 1.2L petrol engine has had regular oil changes, as this is critical for long-term reliability. Use the pending suspension and brake work as a point of negotiation on the final purchase price, as these are imminent maintenance requirements.
The 1.2L petrol engine offers a balance of efficiency and performance for a crossover of this size. You can expect moderate fuel costs, though the annual road tax and insurance group will be typical for a 2017 Qashqai.
Maintenance costs are likely to rise as the vehicle surpasses 80,000 miles, particularly regarding suspension components and braking systems, as evidenced by the recent MOT advisories. Typical annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing, are estimated to be in the mid-range for this class.
Perform a detailed inspection of the front suspension, specifically the offside front suspension arm and the track rod end, to see if the play noted in the July 2026 test persists. Check the condition of the front brake discs for pitting or scoring and the pads for remaining thickness, following the 2025 advisories.
Examine all four tyres for cracking or perishing, as the 2023 MOT record showed all four tyres were either worn close to the legal limit or damaged. Finally, ensure the under-covers mentioned in the 2024 test are securely fitted and not dragging.
This blue 2017 Nissan Qashqai has a recorded history of five MOT tests with five passes and no failures. At 83,285 miles, the vehicle has covered more distance than the model average of 7,707 miles per year. Recent MOT records indicate emerging issues with the suspension and braking system that will require attention.
This model has an average MOT pass rate of 79.3%, with common failure points typically involving headlamps, tyres, and ball joints.
