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

This 2013 Renault has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 25,413 miles. The recent failure of the nearside front track rod end ball joint, combined with a history of seatbelt advisories, warrants careful inspection.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,986 miles per year, with a notable drop in usage from 2019 onwards, but no suspicious decreases or round numbers.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures: Offside Rear Coil Spring (Mar 2019) and Nearside Rear Coil Spring (Mar 2025).
  • Recurring brake failures: Offside Rear Service Brake (Mar 2019) and Nearside Rear Service Brake (Mar 2025).
  • Recurring steering failures: Nearside Front Track Rod End Ball Joint (Mar 2024 advisory, Mar 2025 failure).
  • Persistent seatbelt advisories: Offside Front Seatbelt (Mar 2024, Mar 2025, Nov 2025).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until November 2026, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent low mileage (5,986 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation.
  • Recent major failure (track rod end) was immediately rectified and passed retest.
