Our Verdict
This 2007 Nissan Qashqai shows a history
When inspecting this Qashqai, examine the physical service records to cross-reference with the recorded MOT history. Pay close attention to the front suspension components, steering rack inner joints, and rear subframe areas, as previous tests have noted play in ball joints and surface corrosion on trailing arms. Negotiate on the price if replacement of suspension arms, CV boots, or brake components appears imminent based on how the car drives during a test drive.
Ensure all electrical features and the headlamp units are fully operational, keeping in mind past notes regarding slightly defective lamp lenses. Verify that the 1994cc diesel engine starts cleanly from cold and that the clutch and transmission operate smoothly without undue vibration or noise, as these can be costly items to rectify on higher-mileage diesel crossovers of this vintage.
Operating a 2007 diesel crossover with a 1994cc engine involves typical expenditure for a vehicle of this age and class. Fuel economy should be reasonable on longer runs, though urban stop-start driving will yield lower efficiency. Road tax will fall into the standard bands for a 2007 diesel vehicle, and insurance should sit within a moderate group.
Maintenance costs will depend heavily on preventative care. Given past advisories regarding suspension wear, CV boots, and brake hose ferrules, budget for potential suspension and drivetrain upkeep. Estimated annual running costs, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and typical maintenance, sit around £1,400-£1,800 depending on annual mileage and insurance profile.
Inspect the front lower suspension arms and ball joints closely, referencing the slight play noted in the 2023 and 2024 MOT tests. Check the outer drive shaft CV boots for any signs of splitting or grease leakage, following the severe deterioration flagged during the 2024 test. Examine the rear trailing arms, hubs, and overall rear suspension for corrosion, as noted in the 2022 and 2024 records.
Inspect the brake lines and flexible hoses, specifically looking at the ferrules for the corrosion mentioned in 2024. Check the steering rack for play in the inner joints, which was logged as an advisory in 2022. Finally, inspect the headlamp lenses for clarity and condition, noting the slight defect recorded in 2025.
First registered in September 2007, this blue Nissan Qashqai with a 1994cc diesel engine has recorded 107,528 miles as of its September 2026 test. Its MOT history reveals a pattern of recurring advisories, including front suspension ball joint play, corrosion on rear trailing arms and brake hose ferrules, and severely deteriorated CV boots noted in 2024. Although it secured a clean pass in September 2026, the vehicle's age and past repair history dictate a thorough examination of its underbody.
The Nissan Qashqai has an aggregate MOT pass rate of 79.3%, with headlamps, tyres, and ball joints forming the top failure reasons across the model range.
