2020 Dacia Sandero 1.0L Petrol · AF20 NFV

The Dacia Sandero presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 11 March 2026 at 43,031 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the four prior annual tests from March 2023 to March 2025 each passed cleanly. No advisories or mechanical faults appear anywhere in the chain, indicating consistent upkeep across the vehicle's six-year life. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,172 miles, typical for a 2020 car. The records show steady accumulation: 26,524 miles in March 2023, 32,267 in March 2024, 38,239 in March 2025, and 43,031 by March 2026. The single anomaly is a failed entry logged on 17 March 2023 at 26,524 miles with no defects recorded, immediately followed by a passing test the same day. This points to an administrative or procedural error at the testing station rather than a mechanical defect. The clean MOT history gives no flag for suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, exhaust emissions, or structural corrosion. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside corrosion and suspension compliance, as MOT passes at low mileages do not capture wear between tests. The absence of advisories suggests previous owners addressed consumables before each test. Given the fault-free record and ordinary mileage, the Sandero shows no worsening or recurring defect pattern. Verify service history and check tyre tread depth and wiper condition in person, as these consumables fall outside MOT failure thresholds until severely worn.
