2018 Dacia Sandero 1.0L Petrol · SH18 ABU

The Dacia Sandero holds a valid roadworthy certificate following the most recent MOT test on 18 August 2025 at 83,929 miles, where the tester logged no defects. Maintenance trend across the available DVSA history stays stable, with every passing examination recording a clean sheet and no advisories on suspension, brakes, or structural integrity. Mileage accumulation sits within expected parameters for an eight-year-old vehicle. The 9 August 2023 test at 66,759 miles and the 23 August 2024 pass at 73,779 miles show 7,020 miles covered in that interval. By 18 August 2025 the odometer read 83,929 miles, a further 10,150 miles. The record is sparse but unblemished by mechanical faults. Two failed tests appear on 9 August 2023 at 66,759 miles and 22 August 2024 at 73,777 miles, both with no defects recorded; each was followed within a day by a pass at marginally higher mileage, pointing to administrative re-test procedures rather than neglected upkeep. A buyer should still commission an independent physical inspection despite the absent advisories. The MOT entries never flagged suspension bushes, coil springs, binding calipers, brake discs, or corrosion, yet such components on a high-mileage supermini warrant hands-on scrutiny. Examine the subframe and sills for structural rust, assess exhaust emissions under load, and confirm tyre tread and wiper blades meet legal limits. Previous ownership appears diligent in maintaining statutory compliance, given the prompt conversion of fails to passes. The clean defect history suggests routine servicing rather than deferred consumable replacement. Verify service book stamps to corroborate the odometer narrative.
