2019 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · OY69 FKX

The 2019 Nissan Qashqai presents a clean MOT record with a stable and improving maintenance trend. The most recent test on 29 August 2025 at 22,704 miles passed with zero defects, continuing an unbroken run of first-time passes across all four recorded MOTs. No recurring faults, advisories, or failures appear in the history, indicating consistent mechanical upkeep and no emerging deterioration in safety-critical systems. The mileage profile tells a clear story of very light use. The vehicle covered just 15,158 miles over the three-year span from the September 2022 test at 7,546 miles to the August 2025 test at 22,704 miles. That equates to roughly 5,053 miles per year during that period, which remains well below the UK average. The annual accumulation has been steady rather than erratic, with no sudden jumps suggesting long motorway slogs or prolonged idling gaps. For a seven-year-old vehicle sitting at 22,704 total miles, the wear profile is exceptionally low. Despite the clean paperwork, a buyer should still inspect the underside in person. Vehicles covering fewer than 4,000 miles annually can suffer from deteriorated rubber suspension bushes, seized or binding calipers, and surface corrosion on brake discs and exhaust components caused by repeated short trips that prevent moisture from burning off. Tyre age also warrants a close look; the tyres may have adequate tread depth yet carry a 2019 or 2020 date code, meaning perished sidewalls could become an issue before the next test. The clean MOT history is a strong positive indicator, but it does not substitute for a physical inspection of structural rust around subframes, sills, and suspension mounting points. Low-mileage cars sometimes sit for extended periods, allowing corrosion to develop in areas MOT testers do not always probe deeply. A compression check and underbody examination during any pre-purchase inspection would round out what the paper record already suggests: a well-maintained vehicle with no flagged mechanical concerns to date.
