2020 Dacia Sandero 0.9L Petrol · WF20 DLN

The vehicle currently maintains a roadworthy status with a maintenance trend that appears stable despite minor consumable neglect. The most recent test in September 2025 at 52,445 miles resulted in a pass, though the tester flagged an offside front tyre worn close to the legal limit with edge wear. This mirrors a fault identified in May 2023, suggesting a recurring pattern of delaying tyre replacement until failure rather than a systemic mechanical issue. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,700 miles per annum. The record shows steady usage, with 14,000 miles covered between the September 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 11,000 miles covered in the following year. There are no significant gaps that would suggest long periods of inactivity. The failure in September 2024 due to incorrect headlamp aim was rectified immediately, indicating that this was a simple adjustment issue rather than a deeper electrical defect. A buyer should personally inspect the front suspension geometry and alignment, as the repeated edge wear on the offside front tyre across both 2023 and 2025 indicates potential tracking issues or worn suspension bushes. Check the remaining tyres for uneven wear to ensure the vehicle is not pulling to one side or out of alignment. While the history shows no structural corrosion or brake system failures, the recurring focus on tyres and lighting adjustments suggests the owner prioritises essential MOT compliance over preventative maintenance.
