2020 Dacia Duster 1.0L Petrol · G10 OBE

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-11-21 at 73,980 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but this followed a failed test just four days earlier on 2025-11-17 at 73,873 miles, which also listed no defects. This inconsistency suggests either an administrative error or a technical anomaly, though the absence of recorded issues in both tests implies no immediate safety risks. The pattern of passing tests since 2023-11-28 at 46,828 miles indicates a stable maintenance record, with no recurring faults or escalating concerns. The vehicle’s mileage of 73,980 miles over six years equates to an average of 12,330 miles annually, exceeding typical usage for its age. The MOTs at 46,828 (2023), 61,463 (2024), and 73,980 (2025) show steady progression, with no significant gaps or periods of inactivity. This consistent accumulation suggests regular use, which may accelerate wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and drivetrain elements. However, the lack of recorded defects in these tests does not confirm the absence of underlying issues, particularly in non-MOT-covered areas such as corrosion or minor alignment problems. A buyer should conduct a detailed inspection of the suspension system, focusing on coil springs and bushings, which may show wear from high mileage. Brake components, including calipers and discs, should be checked for uneven wear or binding, as these are common in vehicles with frequent use. Structural integrity, particularly around the chassis and body mounts, warrants scrutiny, as corrosion or fatigue could develop over time. While the MOT history reflects no critical failures, the high annual mileage and recent failed test underscore the need for a thorough pre-purchase assessment beyond recorded data.
