2019 Dacia Sandero 0.9L Petrol · WN69 UBT

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift toward reactive rather than proactive care. The latest test in October 2025 at 33,661 miles passed with advisories for both front brake discs being worn. This represents a minor progression from the October 2024 test where the car initially failed due to tyre defects, suggesting that components are only being addressed once they approach or reach failure limits. The mileage profile is notably low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 4,800 miles annually. Between September 2022 at 16,273 miles and October 2025 at 33,661 miles, the car covered roughly 17,400 miles over three years. While low mileage generally preserves the engine and drivetrain components, it often correlates with the rubber degradation seen in the 2023 and 2024 records, where tyres showed perished and uneven wear despite the low distance driven. A buyer must scrutinise the front suspension and alignment geometry in person. The 2022 and 2023 tests both flagged front tyres wearing on the inside edges, which frequently indicates incorrect camber or worn ball joints and tie rod ends. Furthermore, the 2025 advisory on worn front brake discs requires a physical check of the pad thickness and surface condition to ensure they are not pitted or thin. Given the history of perished tyres, you should also inspect for cracking in rubber hoses and brake lines, as the vehicle appears to have sat for extended periods between uses.
