2015 Dacia Logan 0.9L Petrol · EJ15 KZB

The vehicle passed its most recent MOT in November 2025 at 68,400 miles. The maintenance trend shows a stable pattern of minor consumable wear rather than severe mechanical failure. Recurring advisories indicate a degree of deferred upkeep by previous owners. The tester flagged an offside rear tyre worn close to the legal limit in the latest inspection, continuing a historical pattern of tyre edge wear noted in prior years. The recorded mileage of 68,400 miles across eleven years equates to approximately 6,200 miles annually, which sits below the national average. This suggests predominantly short local journeys or extended periods of inactivity. The data shows consistent, steady accumulation without suspicious gaps or rapid spikes. Between December 2021 and November 2025, the odometer advanced predictably by roughly 6,500 miles per year. Low annual usage often accelerates rubber degradation and fluid stagnation, which aligns with the repeated tyre and cooling system advisories. A prospective buyer must physically inspect the cooling system and wheel integrity before purchase. A coolant leak was explicitly recorded in both November 2023 and December 2024, yet it remains unresolved as an advisory rather than a rectified fault. This persistent seepage demands a thorough pressure test of the radiator, hoses, and water pump to prevent future overheating. You must also examine the nearside rear road wheel, which was flagged as slightly distorted in consecutive tests during 2023 and 2024. Check the associated suspension bushes and coil springs for secondary stress caused by this buckling. The braking system requires close scrutiny during a pre-purchase viewing. Thin front brake pads were noted in December 2024, following an advisory for worn front brake discs in December 2022. This progression suggests the original discs were eventually replaced, but the rapid return of pad wear indicates either aggressive driving habits or potentially binding calipers. Verify that the brake discs run true without excessive lip formation and ensure the handbrake holds firmly. While the vehicle maintains a passing structural integrity record with no corrosion failures, the pattern of ignored advisories necessitates a cautious, hands-on mechanical evaluation.
