2015 Dacia Sandero 1.5L Diesel · SB15 ABX

The Dacia Sandero presents as roadworthy following a passed MOT on 28 November 2025 at 74,817 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across its recorded history. The most recent test came just eight months before the current date and recorded no defects. A prior failure on 24 November 2025 at the same mileage and with no defects logged suggests an administrative or documentation issue rather than a mechanical fault, as the vehicle passed four days later without remediation. Mileage progression shows light use for an eleven-year-old vehicle. The record jumps from 32,353 miles at the October 2020 test to 36,597 miles by September 2021, then to 74,817 miles by November 2025. That final leap of over 38,000 miles in four years still leaves average annual use near 6,800 miles. The sparse history, with only three test years captured and two of those showing paired fail-pass entries on the same day, gives limited visibility of consumable and structural condition between 2021 and 2025. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the undocumented mileage accumulation after 2021. The 2020 and 2021 tests recorded no advisories on corrosion or exhaust emissions, which implies acceptable structural integrity at lower mileage, but standing periods or winter road salt exposure since then remain unverified. The repeated same-day fail-pass entries at 36,597 and 74,817 miles point to test centre processing rather than owner neglect of tyres, wiper blades, or binding calipers. Nevertheless, the absence of intermediate MOT data means wear on drivetrain components and underbody rust cannot be confirmed from the record alone.
