AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Renault has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 19,168 miles. While issues were addressed, the consistent need for repairs suggests a need for thorough inspection.
The vehicle shows exceptionally low annual mileage of 3,490 miles/year, averaging only 1,200 miles/year in the last 5 years, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 9 tests (Feb 2020, Mar 2024, Mar 2025) indicate persistent wear.
- Windscreen wiper failures in Feb 2020 and Mar 2023, escalating to MAJOR, show a recurring safety concern.
- Extremely low annual mileage (3,490 miles/yr) for a 2016 vehicle suggests minimal use or long periods of inactivity.
- Four test failures (Feb 2020, Mar 2023, Mar 2024, Feb 2026) with immediate retests suggest reactive maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until March 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No major structural failures or dangerous defects are recorded in the MOT history.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (3,490 miles/yr) suggests minimal wear and tear on mechanical components.
