2018 Dacia Sandero 1.0L Petrol · EF18 DVX

The vehicle maintains a valid MOT status following the inspection on 9 October 2025 at 81,635 miles. Maintenance trends appear stable, though the most recent test identified specific degradation in the braking system. The tester flagged the front brake discs as worn, pitted, or scored, noting they were not seriously weakened. This contrasts with the clean records from July 2024 and July 2022, indicating components are now reaching the end of their service life. The absence of structural or corrosion defects across the history points to a mechanically sound chassis. Mileage progression shows consistent usage averaging approximately 11,500 miles annually. The vehicle covered 12,296 miles between the June 2021 and July 2022 tests, followed by similar increments of 12,852 miles and 12,293 miles in subsequent years. The most recent interval to October 2025 saw a slight decrease to 10,717 miles. This steady accumulation suggests the car has been used regularly for commuting or general transport, dispelling concerns about the vehicle standing idle for long periods or clocking discrepancies. You should closely examine the front brake assemblies during a physical inspection. The advisory for pitted and scored discs implies significant surface wear that likely necessitates replacement before the next scheduled test. Although the 2023 test noted an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit, the lack of subsequent advisories suggests this was rectified. Verify the current tread depth and tyre condition to ensure the replacement was performed with quality matching rubber, as uneven wear patterns can sometimes indicate tracking issues.
