2010 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Petrol · SP57 JAB

This Nissan Qashqai presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 23 July 2025 at 151,891 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to July 2023, suggesting the vehicle has been maintained to a standard that meets minimum legal requirements without recurring mechanical failures. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age. It covered 10,873 miles between the July 2023 test at 131,021 miles and the July 2024 test at 141,118 miles. Use dropped significantly in the final year, with only 10,773 miles added by the July 2025 test. This steady usage pattern indicates the car has not suffered from long periods of standing, which often leads to seized calipers or perished rubber components. The absence of advisories over the last three years is unusual for a sixteen year old vehicle with over 150,000 miles. While the record is clean, a buyer should still manually inspect the chassis and suspension mounting points for corrosion, as MOT testers sometimes overlook surface rust that does not yet compromise structural integrity. Check the condition of the brake discs and suspension bushes during a physical inspection. High mileage typically results in wear to these components, and the lack of recorded advisories suggests they may be nearing the end of their service life. Verify the service history to ensure oil changes and timing belt intervals were adhered to, as the MOT record only confirms basic roadworthiness rather than comprehensive mechanical health.
