2011 Nissan Qashqai 2.0L Petrol · Y80 MAJ

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 30 January 2026 at 83,412 miles passed with no defects recorded, following a failure just three days prior at 83,411 miles. This specific sequence suggests a minor, superficial failure that was rectified immediately. Given that the January 2025 test also saw a failure followed by an immediate pass at the same mileage, the vehicle consistently meets the minimum safety standards after minor corrective adjustments. The mileage profile is notably low for a fifteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,560 miles per year. Between February 2024 at 69,298 miles and January 2025 at 76,332 miles, the car covered roughly 7,000 miles, while another 7,080 miles were clocked in the following year. While this low usage typically reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain components, it also increases the risk of dry rot in rubber-based parts and brake components if the vehicle sits stationary for long periods between tests. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the suspension and braking system, as low-mileage cars often suffer from seized caliper pistons or perished suspension bushes due to lack of use. The record shows no structural corrosion issues, but a thorough check of the underside for surface rust on mounting points remains necessary for a Qashqai of this age. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking, which frequently indicates the rubber has aged beyond its prime despite having ample tread depth.
