Our Verdict
Exercise caution due to emerging structu
Prioritise an inspection of the chassis. The October 2025 MOT specifically notes corrosion on the rear sub-frame on both sides; while structural rigidity was not significantly reduced at the time, this is a progressive issue. You should negotiate the price based on the likely need for professional rust treatment or replacement parts in the near future.
Additionally, check the service history for the 2.0L diesel engine, focusing on oil change intervals and any evidence of DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) maintenance. Given the mileage of 131,330, ensure that major components like the timing belt or chain have been addressed according to the manufacturer's schedule.
The 1994cc diesel engine provides a balance of power and efficiency, though tax bands for 2010 models are higher than modern equivalents. Insurance costs for the Qashqai are typically moderate, but the age and engine size of this specific vehicle will influence the premium.
Maintenance costs are likely to rise for this vehicle. Between 2024 and 2025, the MOT records show a pattern of wear in the suspension ball joints and brake discs. Combined with the noted sub-frame corrosion, annual maintenance spending will likely be higher than the average for this model.
Carefully inspect the rear sub-frame for rust, as the 2025 MOT identified corrosion on both the nearside and offside. Use a torch to check the extent of the scaling and ensure it has not progressed since the last test.
Examine the front suspension components. The MOT history shows a 'slight play' in the nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint in 2024 and the offside front track rod end ball joint in 2025. These are common weak points for the model, as reflected in the aggregate failure data, and should be checked for excessive movement. Finally, check the rear brake discs for the pitting and scoring mentioned in the 2024 record.
This 2010 beige Nissan Qashqai 2.0L diesel has recorded 131,330 miles. The MOT history shows four consecutive passes, though the most recent test in October 2025 highlighted corrosion on both the nearside and offside rear sub-frames. It is a high-mileage example of this model with a record of recurring suspension advisories.
The Qashqai has an average MOT pass rate of 79.3% across a large dataset, with ball joints identified as a top reason for failure.
