AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Renault has 22 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 44,142 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2025-03-02, which is a critical red flag.
The mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low usage before Jan 2018 (707 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage, but the 2024-02-20 retest shows only 1 mile, indicating a significant data anomaly.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Rear Tyre worn close to legal limit/worn on edge inner edge (Mar 2021) — immediate safety risk.
- DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Rear Tyre slightly damaged/cracking or perishing (Mar 2021) — immediate safety risk.
- DANGEROUS defect: Offside Rear Tyre has ply or cords exposed (Feb 2024) — immediate safety risk.
- 5 MOT failures and 1 dangerous defect in last 3 years (Feb 2024) — consistent neglect of critical safety systems.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 9 historical failures
- Euro NCAP safety rating: 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a strong safety record for its age.
- Consistent mileage: Average 9,147 miles/year since 2018, aligning with typical UK usage.
- No recurring major failures: While there are many advisories, the same major system has not failed repeatedly.
