2017 Dacia Sandero 1.5L Diesel · DP67 JOY

The vehicle is currently in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 26 September 2025 at 27,582 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the car failed a test nine days earlier on 17 September 2025, the record lists no specific defects for that failure, which is atypical for DVSA reporting but suggests a rapid rectification of a minor issue. The mileage is exceptionally low for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 3,065 miles per year. The odometer readings show a consistent and light usage pattern, increasing from 19,939 miles in September 2022 to 27,582 miles by September 2025. This steady, low-volume accumulation indicates the car has not been subject to heavy motorway use or sudden bursts of high mileage. A clean MOT history with no advisories over five years is rare and suggests a well-preserved vehicle. However, low mileage often leads to specific degradation that MOT tests may not immediately flag. A buyer should personally inspect the tyres for age-related cracking or flat spots, as rubber perishes regardless of tread depth. Check for signs of brake disc corrosion or binding calipers resulting from long periods of inactivity. The absence of any recorded suspension or structural rust issues in the history is positive, but a physical check of the underbody for surface corrosion remains prudent given the vehicle's age.
