2007 Nissan Qashqai 2.0L Petrol · NU57 AVM

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass during its most recent inspection. The test in June 2023 at 85,338 miles resulted in no recorded defects or advisories, indicating that the previous owner maintained the car to a functional standard. While a single failure was recorded in May 2022, the immediate rectification and subsequent pass suggest that any identified faults were addressed promptly rather than ignored. The mileage pattern is notably low for a nineteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,500 miles per year. There is a significant gap in usage between June 2020 and June 2021, where the car covered only 13,300 miles, followed by a more consistent interval of roughly 6,000 to 7,000 miles annually. This low-mileage profile typically reduces mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based parts such as suspension bushes, brake lines, and seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components prone to age-related failure rather than mileage wear. Despite the clean MOT history, the chassis must be checked for structural corrosion, particularly along the sills and rear wheel arches where this generation of Qashai tends to rust. Additionally, inspect the tyres for cracking due to age and check the brake calipers, as low-frequency use can cause them to seize or discs to surface corrode over time.
