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

This 2003 Renault has 20 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 45,827 miles. The vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT.

The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,732 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but this is unusually low for a 23-year-old car.

Things to check

  • Vehicle is 23 years old (first registered Jan 2003), indicating significant accumulated wear.
  • Mileage is very low for its age (45,827 miles over 23 years), suggesting minimal use and potential issues.
  • No valid MOT or tax status as of the analysis date, requiring immediate compliance checks.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars is excellent, but this contradicts the 2003 vehicle's age and condition.

Working in its favour

  • No MOT failures recorded across all tests, indicating a clean safety history.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,732 miles/year) suggests minimal wear and tear.
  • Single minor advisory for brakes in 2008-02-18 is the only recorded issue.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars is an excellent safety feature for a 2003 vehicle.
