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

This 2007 Renault has 27 MOT tests on record with a 56% pass rate and 4,271 miles. The vehicle's extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 19-year-old age, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage (5,562 miles/yr) with a significant anomaly: 18,187 miles/yr before Sep 2012 and 20,956 miles/yr before Aug 2013, which is 3.3–3.8× the current average.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2021-02-25 (Mar 2020 advisory escalated).
  • Recurring major failures in lights (8 times) and windscreen (5 times) across 14 tests.
  • Recurring major failures in suspension (2 times) and steering (2 times) across 14 tests.
  • Unusually high mileage jumps before Sep 2012 (18,187 mi/yr equivalent) and Aug 2013 (20,956 mi/yr equivalent).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until 2027-03-18, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No mileage discrepancies since 2019, showing consistent albeit low usage.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current owner is maintaining it.
