2016 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · PE16 LMK

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean recent inspection history. The most recent test on 30 October 2025 at 87,832 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, following a failure just two days prior at 87,730 miles. This specific sequence suggests a minor adjustment or perhaps a light consumable-related failure that was immediately rectified, as the subsequent pass confirmed the vehicle met all standards. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,800 miles per annum. Data shows a steady progression from 62,485 miles in May 2023 to 87,832 miles by October 2025. The interval of 16,449 miles covered between the November 2024 and October 2025 tests indicates regular use rather than long periods of standing stationary, which is generally beneficial for the health of mechanical components and prevents the corrosion often associated with long periods of inactivity. Since the MOT record shows no recurring advisories or structural failures, a physical inspection should focus on standard wear items for a Qashqai of this age. Check the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these often show signs of fatigue at this mileage despite clean tests. Examine the brake discs for uneven wear or binding calipers, as the MOT test does not always flag these performance issues. The absence of recorded corrosion advisories suggests the structural integrity remains sound, but a visual check of the underbody for surface rust remains a prudent professional practice.
