2016 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · GU66 AEG

The 2016 Dacia Duster demonstrates stable roadworthiness, with no defects recorded in its last five MOT tests, including the most recent 2025-12-16 inspection at 111,042 miles. All prior tests from 2021 to 2024 also showed passing results with no recorded issues, indicating consistent maintenance and no emerging mechanical concerns. The absence of advisories or failures suggests the vehicle has been well-maintained relative to its age and mileage. Mileage progression shows a steady annual increase of approximately 10,000–11,000 miles, aligning with typical usage for a 10-year-old vehicle. The longest gap between tests was 14 months between the 2021-10-22 and 2023-01-11 MOTs, but this does not indicate neglect, as the vehicle remained roadworthy. The lack of irregularities in mileage or test outcomes suggests no abrupt wear patterns or overlooked maintenance. A buyer should conduct a thorough visual inspection of suspension components, particularly at 111,042 miles, to check for wear in bushes or coil springs, which can degrade over time. Brake systems, including discs and calipers, should be assessed for uneven wear, though no prior issues were flagged. Corrosion, especially in underbody areas, warrants scrutiny, as it can develop unnoticed in older vehicles. No specific faults were recorded, but these areas remain critical for long-term reliability.
