2022 Dacia Sandero Comfort TCE 1.0L Petrol · SC22 BHV

A consistent track record of clean roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the two most recent MOT inspections on 20-08-2025 and 04-08-2026 both resulting in passes with no recorded defects. This stability suggests that the primary mechanical systems, including lighting, braking efficiency, and exhaust emissions, have met the required DVSA standards without the presence of structural corrosion or suspension component degradation during these testing intervals. The vehicle exhibits a low-mileage usage profile, having covered 11,949 miles over approximately four years, which averages to roughly 2,987 miles per year. While this indicates minimal wear on high-friction components such as brake pads, discs, and tyre treads, such infrequent usage can sometimes lead to mechanical stagnation. In vehicles with this specific mileage pattern, components that rely on regular movement to remain lubricated or to clear debris, such as brake calipers and various suspension linkages, may be subject to different wear characteristics than those used for higher-frequency commuting. Given the absence of any recorded advisories or failures in the official history, there are no specific component defects to investigate. However, for a vehicle with this specific low-use profile, a prospective buyer should focus on the operational smoothness of the drivetrain and braking system. During a test drive, listen for any unusual knocks or rattles from the suspension bushes or coil springs when traversing uneven surfaces, and check for any binding or unevenness in the brake pedal feel to ensure the calipers are moving freely despite the low annual mileage. Further attention should be paid to the engine's responsiveness and the absence of any fluid weeping from the seals or gaskets, as low-mileage vehicles can occasionally experience seal shrinkage from extended periods of inactivity. Ensure the steering remains centered and free of pulls to confirm the integrity of the steering rack and tie rod ends. While the MOT records show no immediate mechanical concerns, these physical checks will complement the clean documentary evidence provided by the DVSA.
