2011 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Petrol · SL61 VST

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT test results. The most recent inspection conducted on 26 June 2025 at 87,298 miles passed with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a clean pass in both 2024 and 2023, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum standards for road use. The single failure recorded on 20 February 2024 at 81,674 miles was resolved quickly, as the vehicle passed a retest just one week later without further issues. The mileage pattern is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,800 miles per annum. There is a visible spike in usage recorded between March 2023 and July 2024, where the car covered 9,000 miles in just over fourteen months. However, the rate slowed significantly afterward, with only 5,100 miles covered between July 2024 and June 2025. This low annual mileage suggests less wear on drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to degradation of rubber seals and fluid chemistry. Because the MOT history shows no recurring structural or mechanical faults, a buyer should focus on age-related wear rather than mileage and tear. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or perishing, as these components degrade due to time rather than distance. Check the brake discs and calipers for corrosion or pitting, as low-use vehicles often suffer from surface rust. Given the age of the Qashqai, thorough inspection of the chassis for structural rust is essential to ensure the integrity of the vehicle remains sound despite the clean test history.
