This 2017 Renault has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 31,750 miles. However, a dangerous brake failure in 2025, coupled with recurring brake advisories, raises significant concerns about its mechanical health.

The vehicle shows consistent annual usage averaging 11,223 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal mileage for its age.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Feb 2025): Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2025-02-28 (88,443 mi) — immediate safety concern.
  • Recurring brake pad wear advisory on 2021-03-11 (41,963 mi) escalated to DANGEROUS failure in 2025.
  • Major failure for windscreen washer on 2021-03-11 (41,963 mi) — basic maintenance oversight.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-03-13, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 11,223 miles/year.
  • No recurring major failures on critical systems (suspension, steering) after initial fixes.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — excellent safety credentials for its age.
