2019 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · OO06 TAR

The 2019 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable maintenance trend, passing its most recent MOT on 17 September 2025 at 45,075 miles. The tester flagged an Offside Rear Tyre showing cracking or perishing and noted a Rear Child Seat fitted, preventing full inspection of both adult seatbelts. These are minor advisories rather than serious mechanical failures, indicating the vehicle is currently roadworthy. The overall pattern shows no worsening structural or safety-critical defects, though the tyre condition warrants prompt attention. The mileage progression is consistent and typical for a seven-year-old vehicle. From 25,720 miles on 1 September 2022 to 31,964 miles on 14 September 2023, the car covered roughly 6,244 miles in twelve months. It then added 6,707 miles to reach 38,671 miles by 19 September 2024, and a further 6,404 miles to reach 45,075 miles by 17 September 2025. This steady annual accumulation of approximately 6,400 miles suggests regular daily use rather than prolonged standing, which is favourable for keeping mechanical components exercised and fluids circulated. Brake wear has been a recurring theme. On 19 September 2024, the car failed with both front and rear brake pads below the 1.5 mm minimum threshold at 38,671 miles. The following day, it passed on the same mileage, implying the pads were replaced immediately. A year earlier, on 14 September 2023, advisories were recorded for front and rear pads wearing thin at 31,964 miles, suggesting the owner monitored wear proactively. A buyer should inspect the current pad thickness and disc condition, as repeated low-thickness findings indicate the vehicle may be driven in stop-start conditions that accelerate brake wear. The tyre advisories deserve scrutiny. The 2022 test noted a Nearside Front Tyre worn close to the legal limit and wearing on edges, pointing to potential alignment or suspension bush wear. The 2025 test flagged an Offside Rear Tyre with cracking or perishing, which can indicate age-related rubber degradation or underinflation. A buyer should check the date codes on all four tyres, inspect inner and outer sidewalls for uneven wear, and examine the suspension bushes and tracking. The child seat belt restriction in the most recent test is minor but worth verifying that both rear adult belts retract and lock correctly once the seat is removed.
