2014 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · YC14 VGA

This 2014 Nissan Qashqai demonstrates a clean and improving maintenance trend, culminating in a clear pass on March 17, 2026, at 90,787 miles with zero defects recorded. The previous test on March 19, 2025, at 80,071 miles also passed without advisories, following an administrative failure the day prior that was rectified immediately. A similar administrative test failure occurred on March 28, 2024, at 73,767 miles before passing later that same day. The absence of mechanical defects or recurring advisory items across these consecutive annual tests indicates that previous owners addressed routine upkeep diligently rather than neglecting mechanical faults. The vehicle has accumulated 90,787 miles over its twelve-year lifespan, averaging approximately 7,566 miles annually. This usage rate aligns closely with typical UK driving patterns for a mid-size crossover, avoiding both the accelerated mechanical wear associated with high-mileage fleet use and the battery, seal, or fuel degradation often found in vehicles left standing for prolonged periods. Mileage progression remains steady between inspections, recording roughly 6,300 miles between March 2024 and March 2025, followed by an increase of about 10,700 miles leading up to the March 2026 test. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on consumable suspension and braking components given the vehicle mileage, even though the MOT history lacks specific advisories. Check the brake discs and pads for scoring and lip wear, and listen closely for knocks or play from the suspension bushes and drop links during a test drive over rough road surfaces. Verify the operation of the electronic parking brake and inspect the underside for surface corrosion along the subframes and structural sills, ensuring the clean test record reflects genuine mechanical health.
