Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2018 Dacia Logan currently holds a valid MOT following a successful test on 22 May 2026. The maintenance trend shows a recent deterioration in basic upkeep, primarily driven by recurring tyre wear and newly flagged suspension damage. While the vehicle passed the 2024 and 2025 tests with only minor tyre advisories, the most recent inspection highlighted damaged front Macpherson strut mountings alongside severely worn tyres, indicating that routine preventative maintenance has been neglected. The recorded mileage of 109,731 miles reflects a high annual average of roughly 13,700 miles. The odometer readings demonstrate a consistent, heavy usage pattern without any suspicious rollbacks or unusually long gaps. The vehicle accumulated approximately 14,400 miles between the May 2025 and May 2026 tests, and roughly 17,100 miles between the May 2024 and May 2025 tests. This steady accumulation suggests the car has served as a primary daily driver, which naturally accelerates wear on suspension bushings, brake discs, and drivetrain components. A buyer must inspect the front suspension and tyres closely before purchasing. The tester flagged both nearside and offside front Macpherson strut mountings as damaged during the May 2026 test. Although classified as not seriously weakened, these mountings absorb significant road shock and will require prompt replacement to prevent further damage to the strut assemblies and steering geometry. The MOT history also reveals a persistent failure to replace tyres at appropriate intervals. Advisories for tyres worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges appeared in the 2023, 2025, and 2026 tests, with the latest exam noting all four tyres were either dangerously thin or perishing. A physical inspection should verify the current tread depth and check for uneven wear patterns, which often point to underlying alignment issues or binding brakes.
