2014 Dacia Sandero 1.5L Diesel · RE14 OEX

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean mechanical record over the last three years. The most recent test on 4 March 2025 at 113,478 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, despite an initial failure on the same day which listed no faults. This anomaly suggests an administrative error or a minor technicality that was immediately rectified, as the vehicle has since maintained a clean testing status without any advisories for mechanical or structural failure. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a vehicle this age, averaging approximately 9,456 miles per year. Between April 2022 at 87,657 miles and March 2025 at 113,478 miles, the car covered 25,821 miles, maintaining a steady usage pattern of roughly 8,600 miles annually. This regular interval suggests the vehicle has not suffered from long periods of stagnation, which often leads to the degradation of seals and brake components not seen in low-mileage older cars. Since the MOT history shows no recurring advisories or past failures, a physical inspection should focus on high-wear components typical for a 113,000-mile Dacia. Pay close attention to the suspension wish arm bushes and coil springs for fatigue, as these are the first items to degrade on this model. Given the age of the vehicle, checking the underside for structural corrosion on the sills and exhaust system is necessary to ensure the structural integrity remains sound despite the clean digital paper trail.
