2014 Dacia Sandero 1.5L Diesel · MF64 ABZ

The 2014 Dacia Sandero demonstrates a stable roadworthiness trend based on its most recent MOT, which was a pass on 2025-05-07 at 85,586 miles. However, the vehicle’s history includes a failed test on the same date, though no defects were recorded. This suggests potential minor issues that may have been resolved prior to the pass, but the lack of specific defect details limits definitive conclusions. The absence of recorded faults in the 2024 and 2023 tests indicates periods of compliance, though the 2024-02-22 failure at 77,880 miles raises questions about intermittent service needs. The vehicle’s mileage of 85,586 miles over 12 years aligns with an average of 7,132 miles annually, reflecting typical usage for its age. The MOT records show no significant gaps in testing, with intervals of 12–14 months between assessments. The 2023-02-02 pass at 72,967 miles and subsequent 2024-03-04 pass at 77,881 miles suggest consistent maintenance, though the abrupt 2024-02-22 failure at 77,880 miles—just days before the next test—may indicate a short-term oversight. The data is sparse but clean, with no recurring defects highlighted. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, as these components often degrade over time without immediate visible faults. The braking system, particularly rear calipers and discs, warrants scrutiny, as binding or uneven wear could go undetected in MOT tests. Structural corrosion, especially in the underbody or chassis, should also be checked, as it may develop gradually. Despite the MOT records showing no critical failures, the vehicle’s age and mileage suggest proactive inspection of these areas to confirm long-term reliability.
