2014 Infiniti Q50 2.1L Diesel · YY14 KJK

The vehicle is currently roadworthy following a clean MOT pass in October 2025 at 80,027 miles. While the maintenance trend appears stable, the recent history shows a significant failure just six days prior to that pass. At 80,010 miles, the tester flagged an inoperative engine malfunction indicator light, an offside rear tyre with tread below the legal limit, and a failed nearside registration lamp. The fact that these issues were rectified immediately suggests a proactive approach to repairs rather than reactive neglect. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle of its age, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. There is a notable two-year gap between the October 2021 and September 2023 tests, during which the car covered only 2,964 miles. Since then, usage has increased, covering over 17,500 miles in the last two years. This shift from very low annual mileage to more regular driving can accelerate wear on rubber components such as suspension bushes and tyres compounds, though the total mileage remains well within typical expectations for a twelve-year-model. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the engine management system to ensure the malfunction indicator light remains functional and has not been simply bypassed. Given the recent failure of the offside rear tyre, the remaining life on all tyres should be checked for uneven wear or age cracking. The record shows no previous advisories for structural corrosion or brake components, but the buyer should verify the chassis for signs of rust and test the suspension for play, as the MOT history does not explicitly detail these mechanical areas.
