2014 Dacia Sandero 0.9L Petrol · WV64 WLW

The vehicle shows a generally stable maintenance trend, though the most recent inspection on 11 September 2025 at 31,514 miles indicates a slight decline in basic upkeep. While the car passed its latest test, the tester flagged a non-functioning stop lamp and a nearside rear tyre showing signs of cracking or perishing. These issues suggest that while major mechanical failures are absent, minor consumable maintenance is being deferred. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a 2014 model, averaging approximately 2,626 miles per year. The data shows consistent, incremental increases in distance between tests, such as the 2,632-mile gap between the September 2024 and September 2025 tests. This low usage pattern often implies the vehicle has spent significant time stationary, which aligns with the tyre perishing noted in the most recent record. A prospective buyer should pay close attention to the suspension and braking components. The records show a recurring pattern of wear in the anti-roll bar linkages, with faults appearing in September 2021 and again in September 2024. Furthermore, the front brake discs have been flagged for pitting, scoring, or general wear in both 2021 and 2022. These findings suggest that the braking system and suspension bushes may require inspection for age-related degradation rather than high-mileage wear. Given the low annual mileage, an in-person inspection should prioritise checking for rubber degradation across all suspension bushings and tyre sidewalls. The history of minor electrical and fluid issues, such as the headlamp aim and washer fluid faults in 2019, suggests that basic bulb and fluid checks have been inconsistent in the past. Confirming the condition of the battery and all rubber seals would be a prudent step due to the vehicle's long periods of inactivity.
