2016 Dacia Logan 1.5L Diesel · SM66 BOV

The most recent MOT on 2026-05-22 recorded a pass, but noted the nearside front tyre was worn close to the legal limit (5.2.3 (e)). This indicates ongoing tyre wear, which may reflect uneven tread distribution, alignment issues, or insufficient maintenance. The same tyre was flagged in 2024-01-03 for slight damage/cracking (5.2.3 (d) (ii)), suggesting a recurring issue with the front driver’s side tyre. A failed MOT on 2025-05-22 (same mileage as a later pass) highlighted incorrect nearside headlamp aim (4.1.2 (c)), a safety-critical defect that likely required adjustment. While the headlamp issue appears resolved in the latest test, the tyre-related defects persist, indicating a pattern of localized wear on the front driver’s side. The trend shows no clear worsening of major defects. Most MOTs between 2024 and 2026 recorded no critical issues, with only minor tyre and headlamp concerns. However, the repeated tyre-related findings suggest potential underlying problems, such as suspension misalignment, uneven weight distribution, or inconsistent tyre rotation. The vehicle’s mileage of 97,590 miles over 10 years aligns with typical usage (approx. 9,759 miles per year).
