2016 Dacia Sandero 0.9L Petrol · FN66 TFY

The Dacia Sandero presents as roadworthy following a clean pass on 3 November 2025 at 35,223 miles. The maintenance trend is stable with no advisories or defects logged across the available history. A prior failure on 24 October 2025 at 35,220 miles recorded no defects, indicating an administrative or presentation issue at test rather than a mechanical fault. Annual mileage sits low for a ten-year-old vehicle. The records show 23,657 miles in May 2022, rising to 27,788 by May 2023, 31,651 by May 2024, and 35,220 by October 2025. That averages roughly 3,500 miles per year. The gap between the May 2024 and October 2025 tests spans seventeen months yet covers only 3,569 miles, suggesting extended standing periods. Sparse clean entries give little insight into wear cycles. A buyer should still verify suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake disc condition in person given the low use and likely static storage. Long idle spells accelerate corrosion on structural members and brake components even without MOT flags. The absence of advisories means no tester-recorded concerns, but pre-purchase inspection of underbody rust and binding calipers remains prudent. The October 2025 failure with zero defects implies the vehicle was presented again days later and passed. This points to paperwork or test protocol, not deferred maintenance. Overall the history reflects light, consistent use with no worsening mechanical trend.
