AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2003 Renault has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 49,840 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the very low mileage and three unexplained failures require thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 2,298 miles/year, with suspiciously low readings of 162 miles/year before Jun 2023 and 185 miles/year before Oct 2024, indicating potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 52,336 miles over 23 years (49,840 mi in 2017) — a major red flag for odometer integrity.
- Three unexplained MOT failures (Jul 2019, May 2022, Jun 2023) with no defect details provided — critical for safety assessment.
- Very low annual mileage (2,298 mi/yr) suggests long periods of inactivity, which can lead to accelerated component wear.
- Mileage trajectory shows suspiciously low readings (162 mi/yr before Jun 2023) — a strong indicator of potential odometer tampering.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-10-16, indicating current roadworthiness and recent safety checks.
- No recurring major system failures (e.g., brakes, suspension) are evident in the MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests a generally safe vehicle design.
- Consistent retest passes after initial failures, showing issues were addressed.
