Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the vehicle
Focus your negotiations on the front-end suspension and chassis. The MOT history shows a recurring theme of worn track rod ends, suspension arm bushes, and deteriorated dust covers dating back to April 2025. You should verify if these components were actually replaced following the June 2026 failure or if they were simply deemed 'not excessive' to pass the test, as they remain listed as advisories.
Equipped with a 1197cc petrol engine, this Qashqai offers moderate fuel economy typical of small-capacity turbocharged engines in a crossover body. Tax and insurance will fall into standard brackets for this model's age and engine size, though maintenance costs are likely to rise given the current state of the suspension and braking system.
Prioritise an inspection of the front subframe to assess the extent of the corrosion noted in the June 2026 MOT. Closely examine the front suspension arm pins, bushes, and track rod ends, as these have been flagged across multiple tests. Additionally, check the nearside rear tyre for the cracking and perishing mentioned in the latest report, and ensure the brake pads have been replaced following the failure for being under 1.5mm.
This 2018 black Nissan Qashqai has covered 70,682 miles, which is slightly above the model average. The MOT history was clean in 2024, but 2025 and 2026 records reveal a pattern of deteriorating front-end components and a failure in June 2026 due to worn brake pads and tyre damage. The most recent pass is accompanied by a extensive list of advisories regarding the subframe and suspension.
With a model average MOT pass rate of 79.3%, the Qashqai is generally stable, though this specific vehicle exhibits the model's most common failure points: tyres and ball joints.
