2015 Nissan Qashqai 1.5L Diesel · YS15 WVR

The 2015 Nissan Qashqai has maintained a consistent MOT history with no defects recorded across all five tests, most recently passing on 26 February 2026 at 95,345 miles. This clean record suggests the vehicle has been subjected to either rigorous maintenance or has benefited from favourable usage patterns, with no recurring advisories or failures to indicate systemic neglect. The most recent test, just five months ago, confirms the vehicle remains roadworthy under current DVSA standards, though the absence of advisories does not preclude the need for a thorough independent inspection—particularly given its age and mileage. The recorded mileage progression shows steady accumulation without abrupt spikes or prolonged stagnation. From 60,854 miles in November 2021 to 95,345 miles today, the vehicle has averaged approximately 8,668 miles per year, a rate typical for its age. There are no concerning gaps in testing—each MOT was conducted within the required 12-month window, and the intervals between tests align with expected usage. While this pattern does not reveal overt signs of neglect, it also does not guarantee the absence of deferred maintenance, especially for high-wear components like suspension bushes or brake calipers, which may degrade incrementally without failing an MOT. Given the lack of advisories in the MOT history, a buyer should prioritise an inspection of suspension integrity, focusing on coil springs, bushes, and dampers for excessive wear or corrosion. The brakes, though not flagged, warrant scrutiny for uneven pad thickness, binding calipers, or disc warping—common issues in vehicles of this age and mileage. Structural corrosion, particularly around wheel arches, sills, and the subframe, should also be examined, as these areas are prone to deterioration in British conditions. The absence of emissions-related advisories in recent tests is reassuring, but a smoke test or visual inspection of the DPF (if equipped) would confirm no hidden issues. Finally, the tyres, though not recorded in the MOT, should meet legal tread depth (1.6mm) and show no severe cracking or uneven wear, as their condition is not reflected in the official history.
