2016 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · CU16 CMO

The Dacia Duster presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 17 February 2026 at 115,487 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the prior four years. Annual mileage has tracked close to the typical expectation for a 2016 vehicle. The records show 35,208 miles at the 1 March 2022 test, rising to 57,936 by 3 February 2023, 80,270 by 16 February 2024, 98,317 by 6 February 2025, and 115,487 by February 2026. That equates to roughly 17,000 to 22,000 miles added each year between tests, a consistent accumulation with no standing periods or sudden gaps. The DVSA data carries no advisories or failures at any stage, so the history is sparse on flagged wear but also free of neglect signals. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc thickness, as these items wear silently between tests and the MOT only samples condition on the day. The absence of corrosion or structural advisories across all five entries suggests the bodyshell and subframes have been kept sound, yet underside rust can develop unnoticed on a ten-year-old vehicle exposed to winter salting. Given the clean record and steady use, previous owners appear to have maintained the car to pass standard rather than deferring consumables. Verify service history and inspect tyre tread depth and wiper condition in person, since those minor items fall outside MOT fail thresholds until worn.
