2019 Dacia Duster 1.6L Petrol · TY12 JUL

The 2019 Dacia Duster presents a stable and unblemished maintenance trend, culminating in a flawless pass at its most recent MOT on 29 January 2026, recording 51,229 miles. With zero defects recorded across every test in the vehicle's history, the mechanical condition remains entirely consistent. This indicates a vehicle that has required no remedial work to meet minimum roadworthiness standards, suggesting diligent upkeep and no developing mechanical faults. The annual mileage accumulation aligns closely with typical usage for a vehicle of this age, averaging roughly 7,318 miles per year. A notable gap exists between the April 2022 test at 14,317 miles and the January 2023 test at 14,343 miles, indicating the vehicle covered a mere 26 miles over approximately nine months. Following this period of apparent dormancy, usage normalized significantly, with the car accumulating 13,696 miles between January 2023 and January 2024, and 11,334 miles between January 2024 and January 2025. The mileage then dropped to 11,856 miles over the subsequent twelve months leading to the 2026 test, reflecting a slight reduction in recent usage. While the MOT record remains entirely free of advisories or failures, a physical inspection remains prudent for a budget-oriented SUV of this age. Buyers should scrutinize the condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as the Duster's utilitarian design often exposes these components to premature wear on rough terrain. The undercarriage requires a thorough check for corrosion, particularly around the rear axle mounting points and sills, which can suffer if the vehicle stood idle for extended periods. Tyre condition and brake disc thickness should also be verified, as the low mileage between 2022 and 2023 suggests prolonged sitting, a scenario that frequently leads to uneven tyre flat-spotting and surface rust on brake components.
