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

This 2005 Renault has 18 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 12,632 miles. The vehicle is also untaxed and not ULEZ-compliant, making it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows normal usage with 12,632 miles recorded in 2008, averaging 6,661 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure recorded on 2008-03-31 MOT test.
  • MOT expired 2019-12-21; no valid MOT certificate since then.
  • Vehicle is UNTAXED and not ULEZ-compliant, incurring significant costs.
  • Dangerous defect on 2008-03-31 indicates severe neglect of safety-critical components.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,661 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories since the 2008 dangerous brake failure.
  • The 2008-03-31 MOT pass after a dangerous failure shows immediate rectification.
