2014 Dacia Sandero 1.5L Diesel · FN14 FAM

The Dacia Sandero presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 9 March 2026 at 107,657 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, and the three preceding annual tests also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across the available five-year record. Recorded mileage sits at 107,657 against a 2014 build, averaging roughly 8,971 miles per year which is typical for the age. The test on 13 March 2023 at 85,949 miles, followed by 27 March 2024 at 95,938 miles, 3 April 2025 at 101,732 miles, and 9 March 2026 at 107,657 miles shows steady annual use of around 6,000 to 10,000 miles with no gaps or sudden accumulation. The DVSA entry for 27 March 2024 lists both a fail and a pass on the same day at identical mileage with no defects recorded, indicating an administrative re-test rather than a genuine fault. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs and calipers given the car is now twelve years old and past 100,000 miles. The clean MOT history offers no advisories on corrosion or exhaust emissions, yet testers often miss early structural rust on sills and subframes. The same-day fail and pass in March 2024 suggests the previous owner addressed any presentation issue promptly, implying reasonable basic upkeep rather than neglect.
