2014 Dacia Sandero 0.9L Petrol · GY63 WMP

This 2014 Dacia Sandero holds a valid MOT test certificate issued on 11 November 2025 at 74,452 miles, which remains current relative to July 2026. The initial test on that date resulted in a failure due to a blown rear registration plate lamp and worn anti-roll bar linkage bushes on both sides of the front axle, though these mechanical defects were promptly rectified for a same-day pass. The maintenance trend displays a notable improvement in recent years, shifting away from the heavier component neglect seen in earlier test cycles. Covering 74,452 miles across twelve years yields an average annual mileage of roughly 6,200 miles, indicating consistent, light-to-moderate use. The vehicle accumulated mileage steadily year on year without extended periods of inactivity or erratic jumps. The pre-2023 history reveals a pattern of reactive upkeep where tires and brakes were repeatedly run down to critical limits before replacement. For instance, the November 2022 test caught severe tire perishing and thin front pads, while the November 2023 test saw the car fail on exposed ply tires and dangerously thin brake pads under 1.5 millimetres alongside emission anomalies. Prospective buyers should prioritize a thorough physical inspection of the front braking system, checking the remaining thickness on both the discs and pads since the vehicle has a documented history of consuming front friction materials quickly. The front anti-roll bar drop links require close scrutiny to verify if the bush wear noted in the latest test has progressed to knocking or free play. Check the inner edges of all four tyres for uneven wear patterns and verify that the exhaust lambda readings remain stable during a cold start.
