Our Verdict
A recommended buy for those seeking an e
When inspecting this vehicle, prioritize verifying the repair of the offside front outer drive shaft joint, which caused a failure in July 2024. You should also check the engine bay for any signs of the oil leak noted in the 2024 records, even though it was described as 'not excessive'.
Given the recurring advisories for damaged or perishing rear tyres between 2023 and 2025, check the current tyre brand and date codes to ensure they have been replaced rather than just patched. Ensure the service history documents the oil changes, as this can help mitigate the risk of further leaks.
Equipped with a 1149cc petrol engine, this Sandero is designed for efficiency and low running costs. It will fall into a lower insurance group and a modest road tax bracket, making it an affordable option for new drivers or city commuters.
Maintenance costs are typically low for this model, though the MOT history suggests that tyre replacement is a periodic requirement. Estimated annual running costs, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic servicing, are likely to be modest.
Pay close attention to the tyres, specifically the sidewalls of the rear tyres, as perishing was recorded in three consecutive MOT tests (2023, 2024, and 2025). Ensure the current set is in good condition and free from cracking.
Inspect the offside front drive shaft CV boot for any new splits or leaks, as this is a known weak point for the Sandero model and a previous failure point for this specific car. Finally, check the underside of the engine for any fresh oil residue following the 2024 advisory.
This 2015 white Dacia Sandero has covered 58,836 miles, which is below the average for its age. The MOT history shows a generally positive record, including a clean pass in August 2026, although it has previously struggled with tyre perishing and a drive shaft boot failure in 2024. It represents a low-mileage example of a budget-friendly petrol hatchback.
The Sandero has an average MOT pass rate of 78%, with drive shaft joints identified as a common failure point across the model range.
