2017 Infiniti Q30 1.5L Diesel · S16 AAM

The vehicle presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean MOT history leading up to the most recent test. The May 2025 inspection at 24,422 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of passing tests since 2022, suggesting the vehicle has been kept in a reliable condition without recurring mechanical or structural issues. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle. The record shows a steady, incremental increase in distance covered, moving from 19,170 miles in May 2022 to 24,422 miles in May 2025. Averaging approximately 2,714 miles per year, this usage pattern suggests the car has seen light, intermittent use rather than heavy motorway or urban commuting. Such low annual mileage can sometimes lead to issues with age-related degradation of rubber components, even if mechanical wear remains minimal. The single failure recorded on 12 May 2023 at 20,230 miles was resolved during the same test, as the subsequent pass shows no lingering issues. While the MOT record is remarkably clean, a buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of age-sensitive items. Specifically, check for perished suspension bushes, cracking in the tyre sidewalls, and any signs of fluid leaks from the engine or gearbox, as long periods of standing can cause seals to dry out. The absence of advisories regarding brake discs, pads, or exhaust corrosion is a positive indicator. However, because the vehicle has covered relatively few miles, the brake discs may not have been used heavily enough to prevent surface pitting or corrosion. A physical check of the underside for structural integrity and the condition of the underbody shielding is recommended to ensure no hidden corrosion has developed during its periods of low usage.
