Nissan Qashqai Acenta Premium Dig T (2019)
2019 Nissan Qashqai Acenta Premium Dig T
CarHunch analysed 267 real MOT records for the 2019 Nissan Qashqai Acenta Premium Dig T. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.
This 2019 Qashqai shows a first-time pass rate of 63.6%, well below the UK average of 80%, which is a genuine concern for reliability. The good news is that zero vehicles in this cohort have recorded dangerous defects, and the average failure rate is negligible at 0.04 per vehicle—suggesting serious mechanical problems are rare.
The median mileage of 35,400 miles is reasonable for a five-year-old car, yet the high failure rate on initial MOT suggests the issues are preventable rather than wear-related. Before buying, have a pre-purchase inspection focus on the common failure points for this model—likely minor items like emissions or lighting—and budget for a potential early MOT retest if you inherit deferred repairs.
What to check before buying a 2019 Nissan Qashqai Acenta Premium Dig T
Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.
- 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
- 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
- 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
- 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
