2015 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · AX65 AHF

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection in December 2025 at 44,414 miles. The overall maintenance trend appears stable, though the record indicates a reactive approach to repairs rather than preventative maintenance. While the car failed the test two miles prior due to a fractured offside front coil spring, the immediate repair resulted in a clean pass with no further defects recorded. This suggests that critical mechanical failures are addressed once they are identified by the testing centre. At eleven years of age, the recorded mileage of 44,414 miles is significantly low, averaging approximately 4,000 miles per year. This low usage pattern typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine internal components. The data shows consistent annual testing with increments of roughly 6,000 to 7,000 miles in most years between 2018 and 2025. While low mileage is generally positive, the long periods of standing between annual tests can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals due to perishation. A buyer should pay close attention to the suspension and braking systems, as the history shows recurring issues in these areas. The 2022 failure regarding a seriously weakened front brake disc and the 2025 fractured coil spring indicate that these components may be prone to stress or premature wear. Additionally, the advisories in 2021 and 2023 regarding tyres worn to the edge or legal limit suggest potential alignment issues or simply deferred replacement cycles. A physical inspection should verify the current state of the corrosion on the underside and ensure that the low mileage has not resulted in seized brake calipers or perished suspension bushings.
