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

This 2002 Renault has 15 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 21,049 miles. The recurring advisories for tyres and brakes, combined with a 24-year age, present significant future maintenance risks.

The vehicle shows exceptionally low annual usage of 5,419 miles/year, averaging only 21,049 miles over 24 years, which is well below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year.

Things to check

  • Six test failures recorded across 15 MOTs, indicating persistent mechanical issues.
  • Three major windscreen failures (2006, 2007, 2008) suggest a structural or safety-critical concern.
  • Recurring advisories for tyres (2006, 2007) and brakes (2007, 2008) point to chronic wear items.
  • The vehicle is 24 years old, with a 2015-09-14 MOT expiry date, implying it is currently not valid.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, low annual mileage of 5,419 miles/year, suggesting light use.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting the owner addressed immediate issues.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP rating is excellent for a 2002 model, offering good safety.
