AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2014 Renault has 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 17,842 miles. The high mileage for its age, combined with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for a 2017 model, creates a significant and unresolvable contradiction.

The vehicle shows exceptionally high annual usage, averaging 14,859 miles per year, significantly above the UK average of 8,000 miles/year, with a notable drop in usage between Sep 2023 and Sep 2024.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (Aug 2018) — immediate safety risk.
  • DANGEROUS defect: Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (Aug 2023) — critical safety system failure.
  • Recurring seatbelt failures: ADVISORY (Aug 2020) → DANGEROUS (Aug 2022) → ADVISORY (Aug 2025) — persistent safety concern.
  • Recurring suspension failures: ADVISORY (Aug 2020) → MAJOR (Aug 2025) — escalating wear on critical safety components.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-09-25 — current roadworthiness certificate.
  • No odometer fraud detected — mileage trajectory is consistent, no decreases.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating: 5/5 stars (2017) — exceptional safety performance for its era.
  • Consistent retest passes — All 5 failures were immediately rectified and retested successfully.
