AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Renault has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 10,778 miles. The vehicle's extremely low usage and multiple critical faults make it an extremely high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows a very low total mileage of 44,453 miles over 14 years, averaging only 3,180 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year and raises serious odometer integrity concerns.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 44,453 mi (3,180 mi/yr) — high fraud risk.
- Recurring electrical faults (2010–present) — persistent and unquantifiable.
- High-risk head gasket and fuel pump issues — critical, unverified, and expensive.
- Very low annual usage (3,180 mi/yr) — suggests long periods of inactivity, not normal use.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-27 — no immediate MOT renewal costs.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories — latest test (Dec 2025) passed without issues.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates good safety features.
