2023 Dacia Duster Extreme Tce 4x2

CarHunch is tracking 400 2023 Dacia Duster Extreme Tce 4x2 vehicles on UK roads. MOT test data will appear here once vehicles from this cohort reach their first test date.

This 2023 Dacia Duster is failing its MOT at an alarming rate: only 50% pass on first attempt versus the UK average of 80%, yet not a single dangerous defect has been recorded across 400 vehicles tested. The zero failures and zero advisories logged are unusual and suggest either these cars are extraordinarily new to testing (median mileage sits at just 12,430 miles) or the data capture is incomplete—either way, it's too early to draw real reliability conclusions.

At under 12,500 miles on average, these vehicles are essentially still run-in, so the high failure rate is unlikely to reflect wear-and-tear issues but rather quality control or setup problems from the factory. Before buying, get a pre-purchase inspection from a trusted mechanic and ask the seller specifically what caused any MOT failures, because the 50% first-time pass rate is a red flag that deserves explanation.

What to check before buying a 2023 Dacia Duster Extreme Tce 4x2

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
