2018 DACIA SANDERO1.5L Diesel

The 2018 Dacia Sandero demonstrates a fully roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trajectory, evidenced by the most recent MOT on 20 November 2025 at 37,161 miles where the DVSA tester recorded no defects or advisories. Prior tests on 5 November 2024 at 34,187 miles, 24 November 2023 at 31,867 miles, 2 November 2022 at 28,283 miles and 15 November 2021 at 25,604 miles each returned passes with zero faults. This unbroken sequence signals consistent statutory compliance. The mileage accumulation reflects light use for an eight-year-old hatchback. Between the 2021 and 2025 tests the vehicle covered just 11,557 miles, an average of under 2,900 miles per interval. No abrupt gaps or rapid accrual appear in the record. The clean sheet across five years implies the previous keeper maintained basic upkeep and presented the car for timely annual testing, though low annual distances can mask intermittent wear. The tester raised no concerns regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, exhaust emissions or structural corrosion at any checkpoint. A buyer should nevertheless inspect in person for dormant issues typical of low-mileage storage. Standing periods promote seized handbrake mechanisms, flat-spotted tyres and superficial rust on chassis members despite absent advisories. Given the fault-free history, the mechanical risk sits low. Verify service records beyond MOT scope and confirm cambelt interval compliance for the engine variant. A pre-purchase inspection should still assess underbody structural integrity and flexible brake hoses for age-related degradation.
