2018 Dacia Sandero 0.9L Petrol · CX68 KMV

The Dacia Sandero presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 30 October 2025 at 49,033 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean results across every examination in the available history. Annual mileage has averaged roughly 6,129 miles against the vehicle's eight-year age, a typical figure for this class. The records show consistent yearly testing from 2022 through 2025, with the 2021 test dated 17 August at 20,699 miles creating a slightly early cycle before the owner settled into late-October appointments. The step from 20,699 miles in August 2021 to 32,694 miles in October 2022 indicates around 12,000 miles in that fourteen-month span, yet no subsequent interval exceeded 6,000 miles. The clean sheet at every entry points to light use and disciplined servicing rather than deferred consumable replacement. No advisories appear for suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, binding calipers, corrosion, or exhaust emissions at any test. The absence of flagged wear across five examinations suggests the previous keeper addressed items before they reached test-threshold condition. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of underside structural integrity and subframe for hidden rust, given the marque's thin factory protection, and verify the condition of tyres and wiper blades which fall outside MOT failure unless severely degraded. Given the fault-free record, the principal risk lies in latent issues a visual test cannot capture, such as intermittent suspension wear or early clutch fatigue from low-speed urban use implied by the low annual distance. A pre-purchase check of fluid intervals and a road trial remains sensible despite the exemplary MOT trail.
