2018 Dacia Sandero 0.9L Petrol · EO18 CSX

The 2018 Dacia Sandero demonstrates a stable and highly consistent maintenance trend, culminating in a flawless roadworthiness status. The most recent MOT test conducted on 9 June 2025 at 48,022 miles passed without recording a single defect or advisory. This unbroken string of clean passes indicates a vehicle that has required no corrective mechanical or structural intervention over the last three years, reflecting diligent upkeep and reliable operation. The mileage pattern aligns closely with typical usage for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,000 miles annually. Between the 2022 test at 28,279 miles and the 2025 test at 48,022 miles, the odometer advanced by 19,743 miles over three years. Notably, the interval between the April 2024 test at 42,528 miles and the June 2025 test at 48,022 miles shows a reduced accumulation of just 5,494 miles over thirteen months. This suggests a shift toward lighter, possibly urban use in the most recent period, which places different demands on the drivetrain and braking systems compared to sustained motorway mileage. Because the official record contains no recurring faults or structural advisories, the buyer's in-person inspection should focus on standard age-related wear rather than rectifying historical failures. Examine the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration, as these components degrade over time regardless of mileage. Inspect the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or lipping, particularly given the likelihood of stop-start driving implied by the recent lower mileage accumulation. A thorough underside inspection remains prudent to verify the structural integrity of the floor pan and suspension mounting points, ensuring no corrosion has taken hold that might compromise future roadworthiness.
