2016 Dacia Logan 1.1L Petrol · AE16 RWJ

The 2016 Dacia Logan presents a highly stable maintenance trend, culminating in a clean pass at 66,150 miles on 13 March 2026. The record shows a failed test on the same date at the same mileage, yet no defects were recorded for either outcome, suggesting a minor administrative or sensor anomaly rather than a mechanical fault. The subsequent pass confirms the vehicle met all roadworthiness standards at that time. With zero advisories or defects logged across the entire history, the maintenance trajectory remains entirely stable, indicating consistent basic upkeep rather than a pattern of neglect or escalating failures. The mileage accumulation aligns closely with the vehicle's age, averaging roughly 6,615 miles per year, which reflects typical light usage. Between the March 2023 test at 23,304 miles and the March 2024 test at 25,969 miles, the car covered just 2,665 miles, indicating a period of very low annual mileage. However, the interval from March 2024 to February 2025 saw a significant jump of 15,434 miles in under a year, pointing to a distinct change in usage patterns, likely transitioning from short local trips to regular longer-distance driving. Since February 2025, the mileage has remained static at 66,150 miles, suggesting the vehicle may have been stood or recently taken off the road. Despite the flawless MOT record, a physical inspection remains essential due to the recent mileage plateau and the car's age. A stationary vehicle of this age often suffers from deteriorated rubber components; buyers should closely inspect the condition of suspension bushes, brake hoses, and tyre sidewalls for perishing or cracking, as these degrade regardless of use. The sudden increase in mileage between 2024 and 2025 implies a period of sustained driving, making it prudent to check the condition of the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or corrosion. Examine the exhaust system and underbody for structural rust, as the extended period of low mileage prior to 2024 could have allowed moisture to accumulate in hard-to-reach areas without the benefit of heat drying out the components.
