2017 Dacia Sandero 1.0L Petrol · SD67 UBC

The vehicle currently maintains a clean roadworthiness profile, with the most recent test on 24 January 2026 resulting in a pass with no recorded defects. While the record shows a pattern of initial failures followed by immediate passes on the same or subsequent days, these appear to be administrative anomalies rather than evidence of recurring mechanical neglect. The absence of any documented advisories across the last three years of testing suggests that the vehicle has been kept in a stable condition and is currently free of major structural or mechanical faults. With a total of 28,272 miles recorded over nine years, the vehicle averages approximately 3,141 miles per annum. This low-mileage profile indicates light usage, though it necessitates a careful check for issues associated with long periods of inactivity. The lack of mileage accumulation between the November 2023 test and the January 2026 test confirms the car has seen minimal road time recently. Such limited use can sometimes lead to seized brake components or perished rubber seals, even if the vehicle passes the basic MOT criteria. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the brake discs and calipers, as low-mileage vehicles often suffer from surface corrosion due to infrequent operation. Check the sidewalls of the tyres for cracking or signs of age-related degradation, regardless of the remaining tread depth. Inspect the underside for any signs of surface rust on the exhaust system or suspension components, as the car may have spent significant time parked in damp conditions. Provided these consumable items are in good order, the mechanical history indicates a well-preserved example.
