2017 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Diesel · SP67 UXG

This Nissan Qashqai has demonstrated consistent roadworthiness over its MOT history, with all four tests—including the most recent on 2025-07-16 at 56,728 miles—resulting in a clean pass with no defects recorded. The absence of advisories or recurring issues across these intervals suggests the vehicle has been maintained at a baseline standard, though the lack of any recorded faults does not preclude hidden wear or deferred maintenance. The most recent test, just under a year ago, aligns with the standard three-year MOT cycle, though the vehicle’s age (nearing nine years) means critical components like suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers may now require closer scrutiny. The pattern of consecutive passes indicates no obvious pattern of neglect, but the buyer must treat this as a starting point rather than a guarantee of current condition. The mileage progression reveals a steady accumulation of approximately 6,300 miles annually, which is typical for a vehicle of this age and model. There are no abrupt jumps or prolonged periods of inactivity between tests, suggesting consistent use rather than prolonged storage or sporadic driving. The recorded mileage at the most recent MOT (56,728) sits slightly above the average for a nine-year-old Qashqai, implying reasonable wear on high-stress components like tyres, brakes, and drivetrain. However, without service records, it is impossible to confirm whether critical intervals—such as suspension servicing or brake fluid changes—have been adhered to. Given the clean MOT history, the buyer should prioritise an inspection of suspension integrity, particularly the condition of rear suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common failure points in this model at this mileage. Brake discs and calipers should be examined for uneven wear or binding, especially if the vehicle has been driven aggressively. Corrosion at wheel arches, sills, and underbody panels warrants attention, as this is a frequent issue in Qashqai models exposed to UK road conditions. Finally, the condition of the exhaust system, including catalytic converter integrity and muffler support, should be verified, as these are often overlooked but critical to emissions compliance and structural safety. A thorough check of tyre tread depth and lateral wear patterns is essential, given the lack of MOT-recorded tyre-related faults.
