Our Verdict
Proceed with caution and a thorough pre-
Given the diesel engine and modest mileage, this Logan should offer affordable motoring, but the brake disc advisories on the most recent MOT suggest discs are nearing replacement. Budget around £200-£300 for a front disc and pad refresh if the next owner inherits worn components. The CV boot failure from 2024 should be investigated — confirm whether the boot was replaced and whether the joint itself was inspected, as neglected CV boots can lead to costly drive shaft replacement. Request any service history, particularly evidence of cambelt or timing chain attention, as diesel Logans benefit from regular timing belt changes around the 60,000-mile mark.
At this age and mileage, the Logan represents a budget-friendly purchase, but check for the typical Dacia issues: clutch wear, rear suspension bushes, and exhaust corrosion. Test the air conditioning thoroughly, as repairs can be disproportionately expensive on budget vehicles. Verify the headlamp aim issue from the 2026 MOT was correctly resolved — incorrect alignment can indicate accident damage or worn mounting components.
The 1.5 dCi diesel engine is well-known for returning strong fuel economy, typically in the 60-70 mpg range for combined driving, which keeps running costs low for a family saloon. Road tax should be minimal thanks to the Euro 6BG emissions standard, placing it in a low VED bracket. Insurance on a Dacia Logan is generally inexpensive, often sitting in groups 3-5, making it attractive to younger or budget-conscious drivers.
Estimated annual running costs fall into the £800-£1,100 bracket, covering fuel, tax, insurance, and routine servicing. Diesel servicing tends to be marginally more expensive than petrol due to oil capacity and filter changes, but parts remain affordable due to Dacia's Renault-derived mechanicals.
Focus the physical inspection on the front brake discs, as both nearside and offside were flagged as worn, pitted, or scored in May 2026. Lift the vehicle and check disc thickness with a gauge if possible — replacement discs typically cost £60-£100 per side plus labour. The 2024 CV boot failure is a priority check: inspect the offside front drive shaft gaiter for splits, grease contamination, or fresh replacement marks, and listen for clicking noises during full-lock turns which indicate a worn CV joint.
Additionally, inspect the headlamp alignment on both sides, as the 2026 MOT flagged both units as aiming too low. This could simply be a motorised adjustment issue or point to damaged mounting brackets. Check the underside for corrosion, particularly around suspension components and the exhaust system, given the vehicle's age. Test all electrical functions, including central locking and electric windows, as Dacia Logans of this era had occasional electrical gremlins.
This June 2019-registered Dacia Logan has covered 31,395 miles across its MOT history, equating to roughly 4,500 miles per year — notably below the model average of 9,598 miles annually. The vehicle has recorded three MOT tests with two failures, both of which were passed on the same day as the retest. The 2024 failure involved a CV boot issue, while the 2026 failure flagged brake disc wear and headlamp aim. The 79.8% model pass rate suggests this Logan sits within typical reliability parameters for its cohort.
The Dacia Logan shows a 79.8% MOT pass rate across 15,603 vehicles analysed, placing it in the lower half of reliability rankings. The top failure reasons — headlamp, parking brake efficiency, and anti-roll bar issues — align with common wear items on budget saloons rather than catastrophic defects.
