2015 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · AX65 AFY

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass record across the last five years. The most recent inspection conducted in January 2026 at 152,165 miles resulted in no defects or advisories. This consistent streak of clean certificates suggests the previous owners have maintained the vehicle to a standard that meets minimum safety and emissions requirements without triggering recurring mechanical or structural failures during the official testing process. The mileage data indicates consistent high usage for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 13,800 miles per annum. Between January 2024 and January 2026, the vehicle covered 20,802 miles, showing a steady rate of operation. A notable gap exists between November 2021 and January 2023, where the vehicle covered 5,143 miles, but the overall trend remains linear. This high mileage typically implies the car has been used for motorway commuting, which often prevents the component degradation associated with frequent short-trip city idling. Given the high mileage and the lack of recorded advisories, a physical inspection should focus on components subject to high-mileage wear. A buyer must examine the suspension geometry, specifically checking for perished bushes and worn shock absorbers, which often fatigue after 150,000 miles. The braking system should be evaluated for signs of caliper binding or thin discs, as the MOT only tests for failures once they reach a legal threshold. While the record is clean, the sheer age and distance of this Dacia Duster necessitate a close look at underbody corrosion on the structural sills and exhaust hangers to ensure no hidden structural weaknesses are beginning to develop.
