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

This 2009 Renault has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 7,269 miles. This fundamental contradiction makes the vehicle's legal status and roadworthiness unassessable.

The mileage trajectory shows very low usage, averaging 3,153 miles/year, with a significant 11,435-mile jump before May 2023, and a 6-year gap from 2012 to 2020 with only 7,269 miles recorded.

Things to check

  • Critical MOT status discrepancy: vehicle is Not Valid (MOT expiry 2026-05-18) but shows 2026-05-18 expiry date.
  • Mileage anomalies: Unusually high mileage jump (11,435 mi/yr equivalent) before May 2023, and a 6-year gap with only 7,269 miles.
  • No valid MOT: Vehicle is currently not roadworthy and cannot be legally driven or taxed.
  • Very low mileage: 51,654 miles over 17 years suggests long periods of inactivity or potential odometer issues.

Working in its favour

  • No recurring major failures: Single major failure (steering) was immediately rectified.
  • Clean recent MOT: Passed MOT on 2025-05-13 with no advisories.
  • Low annual mileage: Average 3,153 miles/year suggests light use and minimal wear.
  • Euro NCAP rating: 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a safe and reliable vehicle.
