What to look for on a 2009 Nissan Qashqai?

I am looking at a top spec 2009 Nissan Qashqai 1.5 diesel, with 125,000km on the clock. The seller is asking for €10,000 cash. What should I look out for?

Hi Terry,

They're very solid but you do need to keep an eye on a few areas. The rear suspension can be troublesome so listen for clonks or knocks. Check the front carpets for dampness from a leaking windscreen. Interior trim and electrics can be fragile while the clutch can give problems, but usually smells strongly before it goes.
