2019 Dacia Logan 1.0L Petrol · PF19 NME

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance history indicates a trend of reactive rather than preventative mechanical care. The most recent test in September 2025 at 24,128 miles saw the car pass despite advisories for perishing on the offside front and nearside rear tyres. This follows a pattern seen in previous years where components are only addressed after they reach a point of failure, suggesting the vehicle is operated with the minimum required legal maintenance. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,400 miles per year. Data from the records shows consistent but infrequent usage pattern, moving from 10,247 miles in May 2022 to 24,128 miles by September 2025. While this low mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and suspension, it explains the recurring issues with tyre perishing. Rubber degrades over time regardless of distance, and vehicles that sit stationary often suffer from dry rot despite significant tread depth remaining. A buyer should prioritise a physical inspection of all rubber components, as the history flags multiple instances of cracking and damage across 2023 and 2025. The failure in May 2023 at 15,144 miles due to an exhaust lambda reading suggests a potential issue with the oxygen sensor or fuel mixture that should be verified to ensure engine efficiency. Additionally, the report of low front brakepads in 2024 at just 19,000 miles indicates that the braking system may be experiencing accelerated wear, necessitating a thorough check of remaining pad thickness and disc condition for corrosion.
