2021 Dacia Sandero Stepway Comfort TCE 1.0L Petrol · HG71 ACJ

The 2021 Dacia Sandero Stepway Comfort TCE stands roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 17 February 2026 at 26,244 miles which returned a pass and no defects recorded. The prior examination on 25 February 2025 at 13,378 miles also produced a clean certificate. Both assessments logged zero advisories on suspension bushes, brake discs, coil springs, exhaust emissions, or structural integrity. Such back-to-back clear results imply the previous keeper addressed any consumable wear before each annual test, though only two data points limit deeper trend scrutiny. Mileage progression reveals a shift from light to moderate use. The odometer read 13,378 miles at the February 2025 test, implying roughly 3,300 miles per year from first registration to age four. Between that date and the February 2026 test the vehicle covered 12,866 miles in under twelve months, lifting the lifetime average to about 5,250 miles per annum. The sparse record leaves a multi-year gap before the first MOT, suggesting either minimal running or extended storage during early ownership. No recurring faults or structural warnings appear in the history, yet a buyer must still verify latent issues that low early mileage and possible standing can conceal. A technician should inspect brake calipers for binding and discs for corrosion pitting after static periods. Suspension arms and bushes warrant flexion testing to expose incipient rubber perishing not yet flagged. Underbody checks for rust bloom on chassis members remain prudent on this model's coating specification.
