This 2006 Renault has 6 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 29,968 miles. The vehicle is currently SORN and not valid for MOT.
The vehicle shows consistent high usage, averaging 17,614 miles/year, with a notable spike of 40,278 miles in 12 months (Aug 2010 to Aug 2011), and a subsequent 35,049-mile increase in 12 months (Aug 2011 to Aug 2012).
Things to check
- High mileage for a 2006 diesel (29,968 mi) suggests heavy use and accelerated wear.
- The vehicle is currently on SORN status with no valid MOT, requiring immediate re-registration and inspection.
- The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating is for a newer model, not the 2006 Renault 5, which is a significant discrepancy.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- No MOT failures recorded, with the single failure (Aug 2012) immediately rectified.
- Consistent high mileage suggests regular use and maintenance, potentially extending component life.
- No recurring major failures, only advisories for brakes and steering, which were noted but not escalated.
