2015 Dacia Sandero 1.1L Petrol · SB65 ACX

The Dacia Sandero presents as roadworthy following its most recent MOT pass on 3 December 2025 at 133,277 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The December 2025 test came eight days after a failure on 25 November 2025 at 133,276 miles, yet both entries show no defects recorded, indicating an administrative or presentation anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. Prior to that, the vehicle passed on 12 December 2024 at 131,486 miles and again on 6 December 2023 at 127,486 miles, with the only other failure also dated 12 December 2024 showing no recorded defects. The absence of advisories or listed defects across five years of testing suggests the car has been presented in a condition meeting minimum standards, though the sparse commentary limits insight into wear trends. At roughly 12,116 miles per year over its eleven-year life, this Sandero carries above-average mileage for a 2015 supermini, reflecting steady high-use commuting rather than sporadic standing. The odometer moved from 127,486 miles in December 2023 to 131,486 miles in December 2024, then to 133,277 miles by December 2025, equating to around 4,000 miles in the final year and confirming a slowdown in use. No gaps exist between annual tests, with the 2024 and 2025 entries logged within days of each other, so the record shows consistent testing discipline even if the dual fail-pass pairs on same dates remain unexplained by the data supplied. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the high mileage and age, as these components accrue fatigue invisible to a clean MOT sheet. The tester recorded no corrosion or structural integrity concerns, but the DVSA entries lack the granular advisories that would confirm exhaust emissions or underbody condition. Given the twin failure entries with zero defects, verify with the seller whether rectification work or documentary errors explain the 25 November and 12 December 2024 outcomes before purchase.
