2018 Dacia Sandero 1.0L Petrol · FY18 AEM

This vehicle is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 26 February 2026 at 49,582 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed its tests on 18 February 2026 and 20 February 2024, the lack of recorded defects in the history suggests these were likely administrative failures or minor issues rectified immediately. The mileage is consistent with the age of the vehicle, averaging roughly 6,198 miles per year. There is a notable increase in usage between the February 2025 test at 41,601 miles and the February 2026 test at 49,582 miles, showing nearly 8,000 miles covered in a single year. This is a slight uptick compared to the 6,734 miles added between February 2024 and February 2025, but it remains within a normal operating range. The MOT record is exceptionally clean, showing no recurring mechanical failures, structural corrosion, or suspension wear across several years. The absence of advisories regarding brake discs, tyre tread, or exhaust emissions indicates a high standard of preventative maintenance. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on general wear and tear items that the MOT does not always highlight in detail. Check the condition of the interior upholstery and the operation of the infotainment system. Since the record shows no historical issues with suspension bushes or binding calipers, a standard road test to confirm steering precision and brake balance will suffice.
