2015 Dacia Sandero 1.5L Diesel · SC15 VUR

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status having passed its most recent MOT test on 29 January 2026 at 69,435 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable and reliable, as the car has consistently achieved clean passes over the last three years. While the record shows immediate failures followed by passes on those dates, the lack of recorded advisory notes suggests that the previous owner addressed any minor issues instantly to secure compliance rather than allowing recurring faults to develop. The mileage pattern is consistent with light usage for an eleven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,300 miles per year. Between February 2024 at 58,544 miles and February 2025 at 64,809 miles, the car covered 6,265 miles, followed by another 4,626 miles in the eleven months leading up to the January 2026 test. This low annual mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain components and engine internals, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and fluid oxidation. Despite the clean advisory history, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on components susceptible to age rather than just mileage. Given the Dacia Sandero's age, check the structural integrity of the sills and wheel arches for corrosion, where moisture often accumulates. You should also inspect the state of suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking, as low-mileage vehicles can suffer from perished rubber over long periods. The absence of recorded binding brake calipers or worn pads in the history suggests the braking system is in good condition, but a visual check of disc pitting and fluid quality remains necessary.
