2015 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · KW15 CFJ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent inspection on March 31 2026 at 85,237 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, with no major mechanical failures recorded over the last three years. The single minor failure in April 2025 for a non-functional horn was rectified immediately, as the vehicle passed two days later, suggesting the owner is responsive to basic safety-related defect requirements. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-use vehicle of this age, averaging approximately 7,750 miles per year. Between July 2023 and March 2026, the vehicle covered 23,700 miles, indicating a steady and predictable usage pattern rather than long periods of stationary storage. This lower mileage generally reduces the wear tear on the drivetrain and engine components compared to higher-average examples, though the age of the Dacia frame means the vehicle remains susceptible to the degradation of rubber-based components rather than mileage-related fatigue. A physical inspection should focus on the tyre condition, as the March 2026 test flagged both the nearside and offside rear tyres for cracking and perishing. Given the vehicle's age and low mileage, the rubber is likely suffering from dry rot rather than tread wear, necessitating immediate replacement to ensure grip. The buyer should also inspect the suspension bushes and chassis for corrosion, as the record does not explicitly flag structural issues, but these are common points of failure for this model as they enter their second decade.
