2016 Dacia Sandero 1.5L Diesel · FT65 ATZ

The Dacia Sandero presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 2 February 2026 at 72,682 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, continuing an unbroken sequence of clean MOT outcomes across the prior four years. Annual mileage sits at roughly 7,268 miles, typical for a 2016 vehicle. The records show low annual use: between 20 January 2023 at 67,967 miles and 26 January 2024 at 68,776 miles the car covered only 809 miles, and just 33 miles separated the 2024 and 17 January 2025 tests at 68,809 miles. Such limited movement suggests extended standing periods, though the sparse, fault-free history gives no evidence of deferred consumable replacement or neglected mechanical care. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the low-use pattern, as prolonged inactivity can accelerate corrosion and permit caliper binding unseen in a pass result. The DVSA record flags no advisories on exhaust emissions, structural integrity, or tyre condition across any entry. Given five consecutive passes with zero advisories, previous owners appear to have maintained the vehicle to test standard. Verify service history and check for underlying rust on sills and subframes, since MOT passes do not confirm absence of early-stage structural corrosion.
