2021 Dacia Sandero Essential SCE 1.0L Petrol · PK71 AAJ

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a stable and clean maintenance history. The most recent inspection conducted on 26 August 2025 at 6,348 miles resulted in a pass with zero defects or advisories recorded. This indicates that the car has maintained a consistent standard throughout its operational life, with no mechanical or structural failures identified during the testing process. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,270 miles per year. Between the August 2024 test at 4,351 miles and the August 2025 test, the car covered only 1,997 miles. This low-frequency usage suggests the vehicle has likely been used for short trips or remained for extended periods, which typically reduces wear on the drivetrain, suspension, and braking components compared to average-use cars. While the MOT record shows no recorded faults, a buyer should inspect for issues associated with low-mileage vehicles. Long periods of standing can lead to flat spotting on tyres, surface corrosion on brake discs, and the degradation of rubber components like suspension bushes. A physical inspection should verify that the brake calipers are not seized from inactivity and that the battery remains healthy despite the infrequent usage cycles.
