2011 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Petrol · SH11 ACZ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, following a successful MOT test on 27 October 2025 at 72,025 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record shows a consistent pattern of immediate failures followed by passes within a short window. In both 2024 and 2025, the vehicle failed on the first attempt, suggesting that minor issues were addressed promptly before the retest rather than indicating deep-seated mechanical neglect. At fifteen years of age, the recorded mileage of 72,025 miles represents an average usage of approximately 4,800 miles per year. This is significantly below the national average for a vehicle of this era. The data shows consistent usage intervals, with 2,500 miles covered between September 2023 and October 2024, and another 2,739 miles covered in the following twelve months. While low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often increases the risk of degradation in rubber-based components and fluid breakdown due to longer periods of inactivity. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection focusing on the components most affected by age and low-mileage use. The history does not list specific structural failures or mechanical defects, but the age of the vehicle necessitates a close look at suspension bushes and coil springs which may perish over time. Check for surface corrosion across the sills and underbody, as these are common weak points for this model. Given the low mileage, verify the brake discs for pitting or seized calipers, as these often occur when a car is not driven frequently enough to clear away surface rust.
