Purpose

Dacia follows it's parent company in offering a contribution, on top of all other offers for its range of cars.

  • Seasonal offer adds even more value to Dacia range
  • £300 contribution towards selected Sandero, Duster and Logan MCV models in addition to all existing offers until end of November
  • Free five-year / 60,000 mile warranty on eligible finance packages
Dacia has entered into the season of giving with an attractive offer that sees its ‘shockingly affordable’ range represent even greater value for money.
In the run up to a period that can have a major drain on people’s finances, the no-nonsense brand is giving customers an early Christmas present in the shape of £300 towards their purchase of some of its most popular models – the extra cash being on top of already generous deposit contributions that feature in its current offers.

Available until 30th November, the additional £300 applies to selected versions of the Dacia Sandero, already the UK’s most affordable new car; the multiple award-winning Duster SUV, and the UK’s lowest priced estate – the Logan MCV.
The additional £300 complements the many finance deals that already feature across the Dacia range and, as an added bonus, all eligible vehicles will also automatically come with a free 5-year/60,000 mile warranty when purchased on Dimensions PCP or Hire Purchase scheme packages. 
For even more peace-of-mind, buyers can opt for the added protection and value of a 7-year/100,000 mile warranty for a one-off fee of just £395 – a saving of £455 over the usual RRP price.
The appeal of Dacia’s no-nonsense finance options, coupled with the low-cost of its range, have contributed to the manufacturer being ranked number one brand for value for money in the 2015 Auto Express Driver Power survey and rated first for overall brand satisfaction in the Which? Car Guide 2015/16.

New range toppers give Dacia Luxury and affordability in one great package.

  • New top-of-the-range versions of Sandero, Duster and Logan MCV
  • Revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March
  • Celebrating 10 years since Dacia’s rebirth in Europe
  • Styling and trim upgrades reflect Dacia’s traditional blue livery
  • Enhanced equipment led by new MediaNav Evolution connectivity
  • Cosmos Blue metallic paint as standard
  • All for just £500 more than the standard Lauréate versions 
Dacia yesterday announced UK pricing and specification for the top-of-the-range Lauréate Prime special edition versions of the Sandero, Duster and Logan MCV, which were unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show at the beginning of March.

These luxuriously appointed models, featuring an exclusive colour scheme, are being introduced to mark 10 years since the Romanian brand re-launched in Europe in 2005, and are available for just £500 more than the existing Lauréate versions. It offers buyers the chance to own a more distinctive, more personalised car while remaining faithful to Dacia’s exceptional ‘shockingly affordable’ value-for-money ethos.

All Lauréate Prime special editions are finished in exclusive Cosmos Blue metallic paint, which pays homage to Dacia’s traditional livery. This is reflected inside each car, with blue fabric inserts on the front and rear seats, blue detailing on the floor mats and blue seat belts.

Other distinguishing exterior features are smart dark metal alloy wheels and dark metal grey door mirror shells. 

Additional equipment over Lauréate versions includes a front central armrest, electric rear windows, leather steering wheel and the latest MediaNav Evolution multimedia system.

This has been re-designed with a full-colour menu screen and now features Apple’s SIRI voice recognition function, full seven-digit postcode recognition and TMC live traffic information. There have been hardware improvements, and the system allows access to the AHA cloud platform via a free smartphone app. 

Through the seven-inch multi-media touch-screen users have access to navigation, infotainment  and hands-free telephone services; can stream music via Bluetooth or a USB or AUX connection; and can connect to social networks via a smartphone. 

Collectively, the addition of metallic paint, MediaNav Evolution and the Comfort Pack would cost up to £895 as options on the Lauréate (on Sandero and Logan MCV), yet they are all standard on the Lauréate Prime for a premium of just £500, embodying the very spirit of Dacia’s ‘you do the maths’ strapline.

All features that are standard on Lauréate versions have been retained on the Lauréate Prime. These include climate control, cruise control with a speed limiter, heated and electrically adjustable door mirrors, central locking and, on the Duster, satin chrome roof bars, side sills and front and rear scuff plates, as well as ESC and ASR (traction control) – both of which are standard across the whole Dacia range.

Lauréate Prime versions of the Sandero and Logan MCV are available with the 0.9-litre TCe 90 and 1.5-litre dCi 90 engines, while the Duster Lauréate Prime comes with the 1.5-litre dCi 110 engine in two- and four-wheel-drive configurations.
