2022 Dacia Sandero Comfort LPG TCE 1.0L Gas bi-fuel · FN72 LGU

The most recent MOT, carried out on 11 December 2025, was passed with no recorded defects or advisories, indicating that at the time of testing the vehicle met the statutory safety and emissions standards. With only a single MOT entry available, there is no evidence of a deteriorating trend; the clear result suggests that the car has been maintained to a level that satisfies the DVSA’s criteria and that any servicing required up to that date has been performed adequately. The odometer reads 6,308 miles on a vehicle that is roughly four years old, giving an average annual mileage of about 1,580 miles. This is considerably below the UK average for a comparable model and points to either very light daily use or extended periods of inactivity. Low utilisation generally reduces wear on tyre tread, brake pads and discs, and engine components, but it can also lead to age‑related degradation such as rubber perishing, battery sulphation, and corrosion of metal parts that would otherwise be kept lubricated by regular motion. For a prospective buyer, the primary focus should be on age‑related checks rather than mileage‑driven wear. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for cracking, hardening or loss of definition, as rubber can deteriorate even with minimal tread wear; verify that the tyre tread depth is still within legal limits and that the wheels are free of rust on the rims. Examine the 12‑volt battery for signs of sulphation or reduced cranking power, ideally having it load‑tested, and look for any corrosion on the terminals. Since the car is equipped with an LPG system, ensure that the fuel tank, regulator and associated hoses are free of leaks, that the pressure gauge operates correctly, and that the system has been serviced according to the manufacturer’s interval schedule. Check the brake discs and pads for surface rust or uneven wear, especially if the vehicle has been stationary for long periods, and confirm that the calipers move freely without binding. Finally, conduct a thorough test‑drive to listen for any abnormal noises that could indicate suspension bush wear, such as clunking over bumps, and to feel for any shudder or pulsation when applying the brakes, which would suggest disc corrosion or warped rotors. Observe the exhaust for excessive smoke or unusual smells that might reveal oil leakage or a malfunctioning LPG conversion. Verify that the service book contains regular oil changes, filter replacements and coolant flushes at the recommended intervals; if service stamps are missing, consider a full inspection of the engine oil, coolant, brake fluid and transmission fluid for signs of degradation. A comprehensive visual inspection of the chassis for rust, especially around the wheel arches and underbody, will also help confirm that the low‑mileage vehicle has not suffered hidden damage during any prolonged storage.
