This 2016 Renault has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 15,411 miles. However, a clear pattern of recurring brake and tyre issues, including a dangerous shock absorber leak, raises significant concerns about its long-term reliability and maintenance.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage with 15,411 miles in the first 10 years, averaging 7,874 miles/year, which is in line with UK expectations.
Things to check
- Dangerous Nearside Rear Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b)) — Nov 2025.
- Recurring brake disc wear advisories (2021, 2022, 2023) and fluctuating rear service brake (2022) indicate chronic brake system neglect.
- Recurring tyre wear advisories (2019, 2025) and dangerous tyre failures (Nov 2025) suggest a history of poor maintenance.
- Major failure for brakes (Sep 2023) and subsequent advisories for brake disc wear and fluctuating rear service brake (Sep 2022, 2023) point to a systemic problem.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until November 2026, offering immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent, normal mileage trajectory (7,874 miles/year) aligns with typical UK usage.
