2017 Infiniti Q30 1.5L Diesel · RO67 XSL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a reactive rather than proactive approach to repairs. In the most recent test in November 2025 at 120,501 miles, the car passed despite several borderline defects including deteriorated anti-roll bar ball joint dust covers and a nearside rear tyre reaching the legal wear limit. This trend suggests that the owner tends to address components only when they reach the point of failure, rather than replacing them during scheduled service intervals. At 120,501 miles over nine years, this Infiniti has covered a higher-than-average distance, averaging approximately 13,400 miles per annum. There is a significant spike in usage recorded between December 2023 at 56,725 miles and December 2024 at 87,686 miles, representing over 30,000 miles in a single year. This rapid accumulation puts considerable strain on the braking system and suspension components, which is evidenced by the failure in December 2024 due to worn front brake discs and thin pads. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection of the front suspension, specifically checking the anti-roll bar joints and bushings for further signs of rubber cracking or play, as the 2025 record confirms these are already at the end of their functional life. The recurring mention of a missing nearside rear jacking block in both 2022 and 2025 indicates a lack of attention to basic vehicle equipment and safety accessories. Given the high mileage and the history of brake failures, verifying the current condition of the calipers and remaining brake components is vital to ensure no immediate mechanical expenditure is required.
