2014 Dacia Sandero 1.1L Petrol · SN14 OBP

The most recent MOT on 19 March 2026 was a pass at 85,027 miles, with the only recorded comment being that the front inner brake disc is worn, pitted or scored but not seriously weakened. Earlier tests show a pattern of wear on the braking system, tyres and front suspension. In 2023 the vehicle failed for multiple tyre edge‑wear and damage items, a non‑functional windscreen washer and a minor exhaust leak. In 2024 a near‑side front lower suspension arm ball‑joint was noted with slight play. In 2025 the MOT was clean, and in 2026 the brake disc wear re‑appeared. The overall trend is neither sharply worsening nor clearly improving; the car has moved from a heavily failed test in early 2023 to clean passes in 2025 and 2026, but the same brake‑disc wear issue persists and the suspension ball‑joint play remains. This suggests a stable but ongoing need for attention to those components. At roughly 85,000 miles over 12 years the average mileage is about 7,000 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. The figure does not point to extreme hard use, but it also does not rule out periods of under‑use that can allow corrosion or tyre flat‑spotting. The mileage alone is therefore ambiguous and should be considered alongside the recorded wear items.
