2014 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · GX64 MLZ

The Dacia Duster presents a stable and clean roadworthiness profile based on the most recent MOT history. The vehicle passed its latest inspection on 8 August 2025 at 108,471 miles with no defects recorded, maintaining a clean record for the past three consecutive annual tests. This consistent performance indicates that the vehicle has been subjected to regular maintenance and that any necessary mechanical interventions were addressed promptly to ensure continued compliance. The recorded mileage of 108,471 over twelve years averages approximately 9,000 miles per annum, which is entirely typical for a vehicle of this age and class. The testing cadence remains regular, with annual inspections occurring consistently in August since 2023. A minor administrative anomaly occurred on 23 August 2023, where a test was logged as a failure at 97,382 miles, yet the vehicle successfully passed the following day at 97,383 miles with no defects noted. This rapid turnaround suggests a minor clerical error or a trivial adjustment rather than a significant mechanical failure. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the undercarriage and suspension components, as the Dacia Duster platform is prone to surface corrosion on subframes and exhaust hangers over time. While the recent MOT history shows no advisories, the high mileage necessitates a thorough check of the clutch bite point and the condition of the suspension bushes, which are common wear items at this stage of the vehicle's life. Ensure the engine bay is free from oil leaks and verify that the timing belt replacement interval has been respected, as this is a critical maintenance item not captured by the MOT testing process.
