2021 Dacia Sandero Essential SCE 1.0L Petrol · FP71 AEF

The vehicle is currently in a stable roadworthy condition. The most recent MOT test on 4 November 2025 at 3,396 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similarly clean result from the previous test on 1 November 2024, indicating a consistent standard of mechanical integrity over the last two years. The mileage is exceptionally low for a five year old vehicle. Between November 2024 and November 2025, the car covered only 854 miles. Averaging roughly 679 miles per year suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary. While this limits wear on the drivetrain and suspension bushes, long periods of inactivity often introduce different risks. A buyer should focus on components affected by standing rather than wear. Check for brake disc corrosion or binding calipers, as low usage can lead to surface rust and seized sliders. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for flat spots or perishing and verify the battery health, as infrequent short trips often lead to premature cell failure. The absence of any historical advisories regarding structural corrosion or exhaust emissions is positive. However, the lack of mechanical stress recorded in the MOT history means a physical check of the fluids and rubber seals is necessary to ensure they have not degraded due to age and lack of circulation.
