2017 Nissan Qashqai 1.6L Diesel · VE67 AHU

The 2017 NISSAN QASHQAI has recently passed its MOT on 2026-05-16 with no defects recorded at 106,607 miles. However, this recent pass does not necessarily indicate an improving maintenance trend. The vehicle has a history of recurring faults, particularly with its tyres and brakes, which suggests a stable but concerning pattern of wear. The most recent test may have highlighted some issues that were not addressed in time, as evidenced by the near-miss of failing on the 2024-12-03 test. The recorded mileage of 106,607 miles, accumulated over approximately 9 years, corresponds to a typical annual mileage of around 11,845 miles. This rate is consistent with average usage for a vehicle of this age. However, a closer examination of the data reveals some notable gaps in the mileage pattern, such as the period between 2021-12-23 and 2024-12-03, where the mileage increased by approximately 44,000 miles in just 2.5 years. This rapid accumulation may indicate a period of more intensive use or potential neglect during this time. A buyer should inspect the vehicle's tyres closely, as they have been a recurring issue. The nearside front tyre has been worn close to the legal limit on multiple occasions, and the nearside and offside rear tyres have also shown signs of wear. Additionally, the vehicle's brakes have been flagged for wear, with the front brake pads wearing thin on multiple tests. The buyer should also inspect the suspension and steering components, particularly the track rod end ball joints, which showed excessive play on the 2024-12-03 test.
