2018 Nissan Qashqai 1.2L Petrol · WR18 OPL

The vehicle presents a roadworthy status following a successful MOT test on 29 July 2025 at 57,203 miles. While the most recent result shows no defects, the historical data indicates a pattern of immediate failure prior to passing. The maintenance trend appears stable in terms of achieving compliance, as the owner consistently rectified issues to pass the test, though the recurring failures suggest a reactive approach to maintenance rather than a proactive pre-test inspection strategy. At 57,203 miles over eight years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 7,150 miles per year. This aligns with typical UK usage patterns for a family crossover. The data shows a clear period of activity between July 2024 and July 2025, where the car covered 10,089 miles. The narrow gap between the failure in July 2024 at 46,987 miles and the subsequent pass four days later at 47,114 miles suggests a specific mechanical fault was identified and repaired quickly after the initial failure. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the components that likely caused the failures in 2024 and 2025. Although the specific defect descriptions are not provided in this summary, the frequency of failures within short intervals often points to issues with wear-sensitive items like suspension bushes, exhaust mounting, or brake components. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check of the chassis for structural corrosion and an inspection of the rubber bushings in the suspension are necessary to ensure that no long-term mechanical degradation has occurred despite the relatively low-mileage profile.
