2010 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · ML10 DTY

The 2010 Nissan Qashqai presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 10 February 2026 at 92,386 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend reads as stable across the available history. The February 2026 pass follows clean passes in January 2025 at 87,887 miles and February 2024 at 81,350 miles, with the two failed entries on those same dates showing no defects logged, indicating administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than mechanical faults. Recorded mileage sits at 92,386 against a 16-year lifespan, averaging roughly 5,774 miles per year. That is low for the age. The Qashqai added only 6,036 miles between the February 2024 test and the February 2026 test, confirming light annual use. Low mileage with no advisories across four years suggests the previous keeper carried out basic statutory testing but the sparse record gives little insight into consumable renewal intervals such as brake discs, tyres, or suspension bushes. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as the MOT record logs no advisories yet a 2010 vehicle of this type is prone to subframe and sill rust where road salt exposure occurs. The tester noted no binding calipers, worn coil springs, or exhaust emissions faults, but standing periods implied by low mileage can accelerate brake seizing and perishing of rubber components. Verify the true condition of suspension arms and steering joints during a ramp check. The clean history offers reassurance on paper, yet the duplicate fail-pass pairs in 2024 and 2025 warrant confirmation that the vehicle was genuinely presented correctly and not retested to clear a clerical anomaly.
