AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2006 Renault has 22 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 8,466 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the extremely low mileage combined with recurring suspension and brake advisories makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows only 8,466 miles over 20 years, with suspiciously low readings before Sep 2015 and a significant drop in annual usage from 2015 onwards, indicating potential odometer issues.
Things to check
- Mileage of 8,466 miles over 20 years is extremely low and highly suspicious for a 2006 vehicle.
- First MOT test on 2009-05-20 recorded only 8,466 miles, which is a critical fraud indicator.
- Recurring suspension and brake advisories across multiple tests (e.g., 2018, 2022, 2023) suggest chronic neglect.
- The 2018-09-20 test recorded a DANGEROUS defect for offside rear tyre tread depth, indicating poor maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-09-29, confirming current roadworthiness.
- No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded since the 2018-09-20 test.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
- The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars is a positive for the vehicle's inherent safety design.
