2016 Dacia Duster 1.5L Diesel · RG51 FUN

The vehicle recently passed its MOT on 22 May 2026, although it failed the previous day due to non-compliant front and rear registration plates and windscreen damage. Mechanically, the history is very stable and clean. There are no recorded failures for critical components such as the suspension, engine, or braking system, with only a minor advisory regarding the brake pedal wearing smooth noted in early 2023. The most prominent pattern is recurring windscreen damage, which has been flagged as an advisory in the last three MOT tests. This indicates a persistent issue that the owner has neglected to repair over several years. The mileage is low for a ten-year-old car, averaging roughly 5,468 miles per year. This suggests light usage, but it can also imply the vehicle has spent periods standing, which sometimes leads to different wear patterns than high-mileage motorway use. When inspecting the car, first check the windscreen to see if the damage is spreading or obstructing the view. Verify that the registration plates have been correctly replaced to meet legal standards. Finally, check the tyres and battery for signs of age or degradation that can occur when a vehicle is under-used.
