Our Verdict

Proceed with caution and a thorough inspection. While the recent MOT history is clean, the vehicle has a history of wear-and-tear failures and is significantly higher than average mileage for its age.

When viewing this Sandero, prioritize checking the service history to see how the 898cc engine has been maintained at these higher mileages. Given the 2024 MOT advisories regarding tyres and brake pads, you should check the current depth of all four tyres and the remaining life on the brake discs and pads.

Negotiate on the basis of the upcoming service requirements, as the vehicle is approaching the 100,000-mile mark. Ask the seller for evidence of recent maintenance that addresses the previous issues with windscreen wipers and headlamp alignment to ensure they have been resolved permanently.

The 898.0cc petrol engine is generally positioned in a lower insurance group and tax band, making it an economical choice for budget-conscious drivers. Fuel economy should be reasonable for a small hatchback, though high mileage may impact efficiency if maintenance is neglected.

Maintenance costs for Dacia models are typically lower than premium brands due to simpler mechanical designs. However, expect regular spending on consumables like tyres and brakes, as evidenced by the 2023 and 2024 MOT records.

Pay close attention to the braking system; the MOT history shows a pattern of worn brake pads (2024) and worn discs (2023). Check for any pulsation in the brake pedal which could indicate warped discs.

Inspect the tyres thoroughly, specifically looking for uneven wear on the edges, as the 2024 test flagged multiple tyres worn close to the legal limit. Additionally, check the condition of the windscreen wipers and ensure the headlamp aim is correctly adjusted, following the failures noted in the 2023 inspection.

This 2015 black Dacia Sandero with the 898cc petrol engine has covered 97,797 miles since its first registration in November 2015. The MOT history shows a mix of results, including a failure in 2023 and several advisories related to tyres and brakes. Compared to the model average of 6,639 miles per year, this vehicle has been driven much more intensively.

Aggregate data for this model shows an average MOT pass rate of 77.9%, with common failure points including anti-roll bars, drive shaft joints, and brake pads.
