AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Renault has 19 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 17,718 miles. The pattern of escalating issues, particularly with brakes, lights, and suspension, points to a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 6,576 miles/yr, averaging only 17,718 miles over 15 years, which is highly unusual for a 2011 car.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Tyres (May 2026) — immediate safety concern.
- DANGEROUS defect: Lights (Apr 2023) — immediate safety concern.
- DANGEROUS defect: Brakes (Apr 2023) — immediate safety concern.
- Recurring major failures: Lights (11 failures), Brakes (5 failures), Suspension (5 failures) — systemic neglect.
Working in its favour
- MOT valid until 2027-05-13, indicating a recent pass despite history.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No evidence of Cat N/S write-off or outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — strong safety foundation for its era.
