2020 Dacia Duster Prestige LPG TCE 4X2 1.0L Gas bi-fuel · CA70 LBP

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance history reveals a reactive approach to repairs rather than preventative care. The most recent test in December 2025 at 45,399 miles resulted in a failure due to multiple consumable-related issues and a mechanical defect. While the vehicle passed upon immediate retest, the presence of thin brake pads, worn discs, and tyres nearing the legal limit suggests the previous owner only addressed these components once they reached the point of an inspection failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-to-use vehicle, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per year. Between December 2023 at 23,912 miles and November 2024 at 34,114 miles, the car covered over 10,000 miles in a single year, indicating a period of higher usage compared to its overall average. However, the total mileage remains low for a six-year-old Duster, which generally implies less mechanical fatigue and wear on the drivetrain and suspension components. A buyer should focus specifically on the front braking system, as the record shows recurring issues with thin pads and worn discs across the 2024 and 2025 tests. The loose offside front driver's seat noted in December 2025 is a safety concern that requires verification to ensure the mounting bolts are secure. Additionally, the TPMS light mentioned in 2023 should be checked to ensure the sensors are functional and not masking a slow pressure leak. Given the advisories for worn tyres in the most recent test, a thorough inspection of the remaining tread depth is necessary to ensure no uneven wear or immediate replacement requirements exist.
