2010 Nissan Qashqai 2.0L Petrol · SM10 VFG

This 2010 Nissan Qashqai presents a stable MOT history, with the most recent test in September 2025 resulting in a pass. While the vehicle recorded a fail immediately prior to the pass in both 2024 and 2025, the lack of recorded defects suggests these were likely administrative errors or minor issues rectified instantly at the testing station. The overall trend is positive, showing no recurring mechanical failures or persistent safety advisories. The vehicle has covered approximately 60,089 miles over 16 years, averaging roughly 3,756 miles per year. This is significantly lower than average for a vehicle of this age. While low mileage can indicate light use, it also raises the possibility of the car having sat idle for extended periods. Vehicles that remain stationary for long durations can suffer from seized brake components, perished rubber seals, and battery degradation, which may not always be captured in a standard MOT test. Because the MOT history is clean, there is no evidence of chronic suspension or drivetrain issues. However, the low mileage makes it difficult to determine if the car has been maintained through regular, short journeys or if it has been parked up for years at a time. When inspecting the vehicle in person, you should prioritize checking the condition of the tyres for signs of age-related cracking or flat spots, as these are common on low-mileage cars.
