This 2013 Renault has 16 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 51,224 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is valid until 2027, but the extensive history of failures and advisories makes it a high-risk purchase.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories (6 times) and a recent advisory for a split CV boot (Nov 2024).
