2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · SW14 SOJ

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT data. In the latest test conducted on 12 February 2025 at 92,102 miles, the unit passed with no recorded defects. This followed a failure just five days prior on 7 February 2025 at 92,092 miles, though the lack of recorded defects on that failure entry suggests an administrative error or a minor issue that was rectified immediately without triggering a documented mechanical fault. Since the August 2022 test, the vehicle has maintained a consistent standard of compliance. The mileage accumulation pattern is remarkably consistent for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,675 miles per year. Between August 2022 (86,634 miles) and February 2025 (92,102 miles), the car covered 5,468 miles over roughly thirty months. This indicates steady, low-intensity usage which typically reduces the strain on drivetrain components and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage examples. The gaps between tests show regular annual intervals, suggesting a history of consistent ownership without long periods of neglect that could mask deeper mechanical degradation. Because the MOT record is devoid of recurring advisories, a physical inspection should focus on age-related wear that a stationary test does not fully capture. Inspect the structural integrity for corrosion on the sills and wheel arches, as these areas are prone to surface rust regardless of mileage. Given the low annual mileage, check the condition of rubber components such as suspension boots and tyre sidewalls for cracking, which occurs over time due to drying. The lack of recorded brake issues or exhaust leaks suggests a well-maintained vehicle, but the buyer should still verify the brake discs for pitting and ensure the calipers are not seizing from infrequent use.
