2018 Dacia Logan 0.9L Petrol · LX18 OPS

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on January 29 2026 at 69,912 miles with no recorded defects. This indicates an improving trend in maintenance compared to previous years. While the history shows a pattern of minor electrical and consumable failures, the clean sheet from the latest test suggests that the current owner has addressed outstanding mechanical and safety issues identified in earlier inspections. At 69,912 miles over eight years, the Dacia Logan averages approximately 8,740 miles per year. This aligns with typical UK usage patterns for this vehicle class. The mileage accumulation between tests is consistent, with roughly 4,600 miles driven between February 2025 and January 2026, and approximately 4,400 miles in the year prior. This regular interval of use suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary for long periods, which helps preserve internal rubber components and braking seals. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system, as the February 2025 test at 65,246 miles flagged the nearside rear brake as trailing. Although this met the requirements at the time, an imbalance or sticky caliper often leads to uneven pad wear over time. You should also verify the condition of the tyres, as the March 2023 failure due to perishing and cracking on both front tyres indicates the rubber compounds may be prone to degradation due to age regardless of tread depth. Electrical components should also be checked, specifically the registration plate lamp and headlamp alignment, which previously caused a failure and a de-minimis defect. Given that there are no mentions of structural corrosion or suspension failures in the record, the primary risks remain limited to standard wear and tear of the specific consumable items mentioned above. The history reflects a vehicle that is maintained reactively, with faults addressed as they are flagged by the tester.
