2019 Nissan Qashqai 1.3L Petrol · YG19 OBR

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a clear shift toward deferred consumable upkeep. While the car achieved three consecutive passes with no recorded defects, the most recent test in February 2026 at 49,468 miles identified multiple braking-related issues. The presence of thin front and rear brake pads, along with worn front discs, indicates that the vehicle has reached a point of significant service interval requirement that was previously avoided. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,000 miles per year. There is a notable gap in records between the June 2022 test at 28,553 miles and the January 2024 test at 36,892 miles, representing roughly 8,000 miles over 19 months. However, the usage has remained steady since, with no signs of high-intensity accumulation. This low annual mileage suggests light urban use, which can sometimes lead to component oxidisation if the vehicle sits for extended periods between tests. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the braking system to determine the extent of the wear. The tester flagged low brake fluid near the minimum mark, which often indicates either high wear from thinning pads or a slow leak in the system. Given the report of thin pads and worn discs, a full overhaul of the front brakes is likely necessary to restore the vehicle to optimal condition. You should also inspect the suspension bushes and bushings, as the previous records do not detail the condition of these rubber components despite the vehicle's age.
