2018 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · DT04 DFC

The vehicle achieved a clean pass in the most recent inspection on 24 March 2026 at 81,992 miles with zero defects recorded, a result occurring just three months prior to the current date. This outcome indicates a stable maintenance trend, as the mechanical issues noted in previous years have been addressed. The record shows the owner rectified the lighting failures and brake wear flagged in 2024, bringing the car back to a compliant standard without persistent structural or serious mechanical faults. Mileage accumulation appears consistent and typical for the vehicle's age. The odometer progressed from 55,429 miles in March 2023 to 81,992 miles by March 2026, covering approximately 26,563 miles over three years. This averages around 10,000 miles annually, suggesting regular use rather than long periods of inactivity or unusually high mileage that might accelerate drivetrain wear. Buyers should verify the condition of the front braking system during a physical inspection. The tester flagged worn front brake discs and thin pads during the March 2024 test, and while these were likely replaced to secure the subsequent passes, the current state of these consumables warrants verification given the mileage covered since. The nearside rear indicator lens was noted as slightly cracked in March 2025, so check the light clusters for moisture ingress or fresh damage. The lighting failure in March 2024 suggests occasional electrical neglect, so ensure all lamps and the highline stop light function correctly.
