2021 Nissan Qashqai Premiere ED DIG-T Mhev 1.3L Hybrid electric · MJ71 XTN

The vehicle maintains a roadworthy status, but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach. While the most recent test in October 2025 at 29,003 miles resulted in a pass, the tester noted that fitted undertrays prevented a comprehensive inspection of the underside. This limitation means the structural integrity and potential corrosion or fluid leaks remain unverified. The trend shows a stable but concerning pattern where mechanical faults are only addressed immediately following a test failure. At 29,003 miles over five years, the vehicle has covered significantly low mileage, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per year. This low usage suggests light road exposure, but can also lead to component degradation from stagnation rather than mechanical wear. Between October 2024 at 23,510 miles and October 2025 at 29,003 miles, the car covered 5,493 miles. This interval is sufficient to have rectified the wear issues noted in the previous year. A buyer must personally inspect the rear suspension and alignment to address the findings from the October 2024 failure. The nearside rear tyre was worn on the edge, which typically points to incorrect tracking or a worn suspension bush rather than simple mileage. Furthermore, the rear brake pads were found below 1.5mm during that same test, indicating the owner ignored brake service intervals until a MOT failure occurred. Check the brake discs for scoring or heat glazing to ensure the thin pads did not damage the rotors before replacement.
