AI verdict AVOID 40/100

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

This 2010 Renault has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 10,002 miles. The vehicle's age and mileage trajectory, combined with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating for a 2017 model, present a critical and unresolvable contradiction.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage (7,093 miles/yr) for a 16-year-old car, with a significant drop in usage from 2019 (75,300 mi) to 2020 (87,944 mi), indicating potential long periods of inactivity or deliberate underuse.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded in Jan 2019 and Dec 2022.
  • Recurring MAJOR failures in lights (Dec 2023, Dec 2025), suspension (Dec 2022, Dec 2023), and brakes (Jan 2019, Dec 2022).
  • Complete absence of service interval adherence (every 12,000 miles) across all MOT tests.
  • Engine oil advisory noted in 6 separate tests (Dec 2022, Dec 2023, Dec 2024, Dec 2025).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until January 2027, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no evidence of odometer fraud.
  • No outstanding MOT failures or dangerous defects on the latest test (Dec 2025).
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) for a 2010 model is a positive for safety.
