2016 Infiniti Q50 2.1L Diesel · RF16 KTP

The vehicle remains roadworthy, but the most recent inspection indicates a shift toward a deteriorating maintenance trend. After three consecutive years of clean passes, the July 2025 test at 72,850 miles revealed multiple defects related to wear and structural surface condition. This transition suggests that while the vehicle was well-maintained in its earlier years, the current owner has neglected routine consumable replacements and preventative care in the most recent service interval. The mileage profile is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,300 miles per annum. Between June 2022 and July 2025, the car covered 23,422 miles, showing a steady pattern of use. However, the 4,620-mile gap between the July 2024 and July 2025 tests coincides with the appearance of mechanical faults, indicating that the vehicle was driven through the end of several component lives without intervention prior to the MOT test. A buyer must prioritize inspecting the front sub-frame due to the corrosion noted in the 2025 record. While the tester marked it as not seriously weakened, structural rust on Infiniti components can progress rapidly if not treated. The reported edge wear on all four tyres at 72,850 miles is concerning and points to an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes that remain unaddressed. Furthermore, the front brake discs are pitted and scored, necessitating an immediate replacement to ensure effective braking performance and to prevent premature damage to new pads.
