2014 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · MV64 AEJ

The 2014 Dacia Duster remains roadworthy with a stable maintenance record, as evidenced by its most recent MOT on 2026-02-23 at 86,950 miles, which returned a pass with no defects. The vehicle has consistently passed annual inspections since 2022, with no recurring issues or advisories recorded across five consecutive tests. This suggests the previous owner maintained the car to a satisfactory standard, with no evidence of escalating mechanical or structural problems. The absence of defects in all tests indicates the vehicle meets current safety and emissions standards. The mileage progression aligns with typical usage for a 12-year-old vehicle, averaging 7,246 miles annually. The MOT intervals are regular, with consistent mileage increments between tests, though the 2025-02-21 inspection at 71,748 miles showed a sharp jump of 14,000 miles from the 2024-02-15 test. This could reflect periods of increased use or infrequent MOTs, but no defects were flagged. The clean record over five years implies no major wear or corrosion issues, though the lack of detailed advisories limits insight into minor component degradation. A buyer should inspect the suspension system for worn bushes or coil springs, common in older Dacia models, and check for rust in the underbody or chassis. The brake system, including calipers and discs, should be examined for uneven wear, as the vehicle’s history shows no brake-related failures but does not confirm their condition. Additionally, the exhaust system and emissions controls warrant scrutiny, as these components often degrade over time. While the MOT data is sparse, the absence of recorded faults suggests the car is mechanically sound but requires a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm its current state.
