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

This 2011 Renault has 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 12,365 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the complete absence of data for 2017-2023 makes a reliable assessment impossible.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage (4,928 miles/yr), which is a significant concern for a 15-year-old car and requires thorough investigation.

Things to check

  • Complete MOT history gap from 2017 to 2023 — no records available for 12 years.
  • First MOT recorded on 2014-09-26 at 12,365 miles, but no records for 2015–2016.
  • Mileage trajectory is highly irregular and suspiciously low for a 15-year-old vehicle.
  • Multiple recurring suspension and tyre advisories, escalating to failures, indicate chronic neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Current MOT is valid until 2026-11-27, confirming it is roadworthy now.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current owner has maintained it well.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
  • Renault 5 E-Tech models are known for their stylish retro-futuristic design and modern appeal.
