2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · NG63 GLF

The 2014 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on its most recent MOT records. The June 2025 test at 87,387 miles confirmed a clean pass with no defects, aligning with the prior three annual tests from 2022 to 2024, which also showed no issues. A single failed test on 2023-06-30 at 69,009 miles is recorded, though no defects were listed, suggesting either a procedural error or a minor non-critical failure. The absence of recurring mechanical or structural faults in the last four tests indicates consistent maintenance, with no emerging trends of deterioration. The vehicle’s mileage of 87,387 miles over 12 years equates to an average of 7,282 miles annually, a rate typical for its age. The MOT history shows regular testing with no significant gaps, though the 2023-06-30 entry duplicates a date and mileage, raising questions about record accuracy. The lack of major wear indicators in the tests suggests the owner prioritized basic upkeep, though the absence of detailed defect reports limits insight into specific component conditions. Rapid mileage spikes are not evident, reducing immediate concerns about excessive drivetrain or suspension fatigue. A buyer should prioritize a hands-on inspection of suspension components, particularly suspension bushes and coil springs, which often degrade over time in older vehicles. Brake discs and calipers warrant scrutiny for uneven wear or corrosion, as these can develop unnoticed in used cars. The exhaust system and underbody should also be checked for rust, as corrosion is a common issue in older models. While the MOT record shows no critical failures, the vehicle’s age and mileage mean proactive checks on these areas are essential to confirm long-term reliability.
