2017 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · VE17 VGL

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a slight decline in preventative care. While the most recent test in March 2026 at 75,150 miles passed, it introduced multiple advisories regarding rear tyre wear and an inoperative registration lamp. This marks a shift from the clean records seen in 2024 and 2025, suggesting that the owner is now addressing consumables only as they approach failure limits. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,350 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 8,471 miles between March 2025 and March 2026, which indicates regular annual usage. The brief failure in March 2024 at 59,594 miles due to an ineffective windscreen wiper was rectified immediately within two days, showing that the test-specific failure was a minor hardware-related issue rather than a sign of deeper mechanical neglect. A buyer should conduct a thorough inspection of the rear tyres and suspension geometry, as the recent 2mm tread depth on both rear tires suggests uneven wear. This could indicate a need for analignment or worn suspension bushes which the tester not yet flagged as a failure. The registration plate lamp must be replaced or repaired to comply with lighting standards. Given the lack of structural corrosion or brake issues in the recorded history, a physical check of the brake discs and calipers is advised to ensure no binding has developed that was missed during the MOT process.
