2014 Dacia Sandero 1.5L Diesel · YB64 ABZ

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable maintenance profile with a consistent record of roadworthiness. The most recent MOT on 27 November 2025 at 20,080 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a four-year trend of flawless test results, indicating a vehicle that has been kept in a state of readiness without the recurring mechanical failures often seen in cars of this vintage. The mileage is remarkably low for a twelve-year-old vehicle, averaging roughly 1,673 miles per year. The progression is steady and linear, moving from 15,962 miles in November 2021 to 20,080 miles in November 2025. This lack of sudden mileage spikes suggests light, consistent use rather than erratic periods of abandonment, though such low usage often places different stresses on a vehicle than high-mileage motorway driving. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Rubber elements such as tyre sidewalls, suspension bushes, and engine mounts can perish over twelve years even if the car rarely moves. Check for flat spots on the tyres or signs of cracking in the rubber. Brake calipers and discs should be inspected for surface corrosion or seizing, as low-mileage cars often suffer from binding calipers due to inactivity. The absence of any recorded advisories regarding structural integrity or corrosion is a positive indicator for a Dacia of this age. However, a manual check for underbody rust remains prudent. Verify that the oil has been changed at regular intervals despite the low annual mileage, as old oil can accumulate moisture and contaminants when the engine does not reach full operating temperature frequently.
