2011 Nissan Qashqai 2.0L Petrol · VE11 FPO

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass in October 2025 at 103,320 miles. This successful test occurred just nine days after a recorded failure at 103,317 miles. While the maintenance trend appears stable as the owner is consistently addressing immediate issues to secure a certificate, the lack of recorded advisories on the two most recent passes indicates that the vehicle is currently free of significant outstanding mechanical or structural defects that testers typically flag during an inspection. The mileage pattern is consistent with a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,900 miles per annum. There was a period of low activity between November 2023 at 97,665 miles and September 2024 at 98,816 miles, where the car covered barely 1,150 miles in nearly ten months. However, usage accelerated significantly recently, with 4,500 miles covered between the September 2024 and October 2025 tests. This recent increase in mileage suggests the car is in regular use, which typically accelerates the wear rate on rubber components and suspension bushings. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the areas that caused the recent failures in 2024 and 2025, although the record does not specify the exact faults. Given the age of the Qashqai, a thorough check for corrosion on the subframe and exhaust system is essential, as structural integrity often degrades over this period. The buyer should also inspect the condition of the brake calipers and the state of coil springs to ensure that the recent surge in mileage has not masked underlying mechanical wear or fluid leaks.
