2015 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · MW15 AAX

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2025-08-01 at 63,862 miles recorded a PASS with no defects, indicating stable roadworthiness. Previous tests from 2024-07-31 (56,896 miles) show a PASS and a FAIL on the same date, though neither entry noted defects. The 2023-07-25 test at 49,634 miles and 2022-08-03 test at 43,711 miles also passed without issues. The absence of recorded defects across all tests suggests consistent maintenance, with no emerging mechanical or structural concerns. The mileage of 63,862 miles for an 11-year-old vehicle equates to approximately 5,806 miles annually, significantly lower than average. This pattern implies infrequent use or prolonged periods of inactivity, which can lead to fluid stagnation, rubber component degradation, or corrosion. Notably, the 2024-07-31 tests at 56,896 miles—both PASS and FAIL—occur just 6,966 miles from the 2025-08-01 test, suggesting minimal usage during this period. The MOT history lacks gaps, reflecting regular testing but offering no insight into non-MOT maintenance. A buyer should inspect suspension components, such as bushes and coil springs, for wear given the low mileage and potential storage-related issues. Brake systems, including calipers and discs, should be checked for binding or corrosion, as these can develop during inactivity. The absence of recorded defects does not eliminate risks associated with long-term storage, so a pre-purchase inspection should prioritise these areas to confirm the vehicle’s mechanical integrity.
