2016 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · DS16 LBG

The vehicle has a recent MOT record, with the latest test conducted just two months ago on 2026-04-17 at 35,013 miles. It passed with several critical defects requiring immediate rectification, notably severe pitting and scoring on both front brake discs, a leaking sump plug, and light oil misting from the offside rear shock absorber. The brake issue indicates serious wear, while the oil leak suggests potential long-term neglect of basic fluid maintenance. The spare tyre remains defective, and the underinflated rear tyre poses a safety hazard. These recurring defects on the braking system and suspension components signal a deteriorating maintenance trend. The low annual mileage of approximately 3,500 miles per year suggests the car has seen minimal use, which may have preserved some components but also allowed issues such as corrosion and brake pad binding to develop during extended periods of storage. A buyer should inspect the front brake discs in person for the extent of the scoring, check the sump plug area for fresh leaks, and verify the shock absorber's oil seal integrity. Additionally, the missing fog lamps and damaged front wing require repair.
