Our Verdict
Overall this 2023 Dacia Duster Journey T
When evaluating this Duster, start by confirming the mileage aligns with the service records and that the odometer reading is consistent with the vehicle's age. Although the MOT history shows no failures, request any available service documentation to verify routine maintenance, especially oil changes and filter replacements. Be aware that the Duster model commonly records tyre and headlamp issues in MOTs, so check the condition of the tyres for tread depth and uniform wear, and ensure all exterior lights operate correctly.
Negotiate on any upcoming MOT or service items that may be due soon, such as tyre replacement if tread is low or headlamp bulbs that are approaching the end of their service life. The vehicle's relatively low mileage suggests there may be remaining life in major components, but verify that the timing belt (if applicable) and other wear items are within service intervals. Finally, compare the asking price against similar 2023 Duster Journeys with comparable mileage to ensure you are getting a fair market deal.
The Dacia Duster Journey TCe 1.3‑litre petrol engine typically delivers around 45‑50 mpg in mixed driving, which keeps fuel costs modest for a compact SUV. For a vehicle of this age and engine size, road tax falls into the lower band (often £0‑£150 per year), and insurance groups for the 2023 model usually sit in the 20‑25 range, translating to moderate premiums.
Maintenance on the Duster is generally inexpensive, with routine services (oil change, filter replacement) costing around £150‑£200 per visit. Given the vehicle's low mileage and clean MOT record, annual running costs—including fuel, tax, insurance, and routine maintenance—are likely to fall between £800 and £1,000.
Inspect the tyre condition carefully; the model's aggregate data lists tyre failures as a top MOT issue, so look for uneven wear, sidewall damage, or low tread depth that could indicate alignment problems or impending replacement. Check all external lighting, particularly headlamps and indicators, as headlamp failures are also common in the Duster's MOT history.
Examine the interior for signs of wear that may be out of proportion to the 18,096‑mile reading, such as seat fabric damage or excessive wear on the steering wheel and pedals. Verify that the engine bay is free of oil leaks, and listen for any unusual noises during a short test drive, as these can hint at underlying mechanical issues not captured by the MOT record.
The Dacia Duster Journey registered in February 2023 has logged 18,096 miles, which is below the model's average annual mileage of 8,919 miles. Its sole MOT test in February 2026 passed with no recorded defects. The Duster's model shows a 91.8% overall MOT pass rate, indicating generally good reliability. With a modest mileage and no recorded failures, the vehicle offers a sensible value proposition for budget‑focused buyers.
The Dacia Duster Journey has an aggregate MOT pass rate of 91.8%, indicating it generally performs well in annual inspections.
