2011 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · SP11 XKY

The 2011 Nissan Qashqai presents a clean roadworthiness status as of the most recent test on 21 May 2025 at 169,974 miles, where the vehicle passed with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, showing no recurring advisories or failures that would indicate worsening mechanical condition. A failed entry logged on the same date at identical mileage carries no recorded defects, which points to an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. Mileage progression sits at a typical level for a fifteen year old vehicle, averaging roughly 11,300 miles per year. The record shows 160,480 miles on 17 August 2021, rising to 165,082 by 23 January 2023, then 167,226 on 2 May 2024, and 169,974 on 21 May 2025. The gap between the 2021 and 2023 tests spans over seventeen months, suggesting the car saw limited use or delayed testing in that period, though annual mileage remained moderate thereafter. Given the absence of any flagged items across five tests, the DVSA record implies the previous owners kept basic consumables and structural items within test limits. No corrosion, suspension bush wear, brake binding, or exhaust emission faults appear in the data. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside structure, coil springs, and brake disc thickness, as MOT pass sheets do not capture wear approaching limits without an advisory. At 169,974 miles the Qashqai demands scrutiny of high mileage drivetrain components not visible in MOT data, notably clutch, turbo, and differential condition. The clean history supports a fair mechanical prospect, but the sparse five entry record leaves long intervals unverified.
