2015 Dacia Sandero 0.9L Petrol · CE15 FNK

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend despite occasional reactive repairs. The most recent test on 13 April 2026 at 64,842 miles resulted in a pass, with only a minor stone chip on the windscreen noted. This follows a failure in April 2025 due to a low headlamp aim and a nail in the offside rear tyre, both of which were rectified to secure the subsequent pass. The mileage profile is consistently low for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,900 miles per year. Between April 2023 at 54,912 miles and April 2026 at 64,842 miles, the car covered roughly 3,300 miles annually. This usage pattern suggests less overall mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it also increases the likelihood of age-related degradation in rubber seals and potential fluid breakdown if the vehicle has sat for extended periods. A buyer should physically inspect the condition of the front suspension geometry, as the 2023 advisory noted a nearside front tyre worn on the edge, which often indicates an alignment issue or worn suspension bushes. While the recent history shows no structural corrosion or brake failures, the recurring windscreen damage across three years suggests a lack of proactive attention to glass-related maintenance. Check the brake discs for pitting or corrosion to ensure the low mileage has not led to excessive surface oxidation of the braking system.
