AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Renault has 27 MOT tests on record with a 56% pass rate and 21,965 miles. The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, showing only 21,965 miles in 17 years, which is far below the UK average.
The vehicle shows only 21,965 miles over 17 years, a significant anomaly from the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, raising serious odometer fraud concerns.
Things to check
- Dangerous tyre defect recorded on 2012-01-24 (21,965 mi) — immediate safety risk.
- Recurring suspension failures and advisories across multiple tests (e.g., Jan 2020, Jan 2021, Jan 2022).
- Consistent pattern of tyre wear advisories and failures (e.g., Jan 2019, Jan 2021, Jan 2023).
- Headlamp aim failures on 2012-01-24 and 2013-01-22 (21,965 mi, 29,862 mi).
Working in its favour
- MOT valid until 2027-01-30, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering.
- Consistent annual mileage increases (though low), no sudden spikes or drops.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off markers in the provided MOT data.
